Summary/Abstract: This article presents selected issues related to the implementation of the EU Interoperability Directive and the Safety Directive into the national legal system. Due to the need for administrative authorities to apply directly effective provisions of the 4th Railway Package, it may be necessary for these authorities to resolve conflicts with national law, which has not yet been adapted to EU solutions. Until Polish legislation is not fully adjusted to the regulations of the 4th Railway Package, it will be necessary to resolve conflict of laws rules ensuring the primacy of the application of EU provisions (in this case, implementing regulations issued by the European Commission) over national law. This will pose a challenge to the National Safety Authorities and may generate legal risks for applicants.
