Summary/Abstract: The amendment of system-related laws dated January 2018 was an expression of the legislator’s pursuits to provide members of self-government communities with an effective impact on the activity of bodies thereof. Shaping new institutions under which the complaints, requests and petitions commission falls was to serve the implementation of this assumption. Local government units of all levels were obliged to create a permanent commission by which the law-making body and the auditing body were to examine complaints about the activity of the executive authority and self-government organisational units, as well as requests and petitions brought in by citizens. This study analysed the normative material, which made possible to present the commission’s systemic position and its tasks. It also allowed an assessment of the adopted legal solutions outlining this body’s status and formulation of de lege lata conclusions.
