Summary/Abstract: The position of the Government Plenipotentiary for Repatriation, as an organ of the state administration, is rather specific and untypical. The function of the Plenipotentiary ought to be situated somewhere between a political post and an administrative one. Analyses of the legal solution in this respect lead to the conclusion that the organ in question is invested with the majority of characteristics attributed to central organs of state administration. It does, however, in view of the fact that this function is presently held by a secretary of state, possess a political character. What was decisive about the establishment of the post of Government Plenipotentiary for Repatriation was obviously the criteria related to increasing effectiveness and effectivity of actions, as well as the wish to accentuate the significance of repatriation among priorities of the immigration policy.
