Uwarunkowania instytucji obywatelskiej inicjatywy uchwałodawczej

Abstract

This study addresses the issue of identifying the determinants of the institution of a civic legislative initiative. It aims to present selected legal and factual limitations related to this institution, identified at the level of the regulations of local self‑government systems, and in selected resolutions defining the detailed principles for filing a legislative initiative. The discussion also covers issues related to submitting a draft resolution for an opinion (the stage at which such an opinion should be given) and/or for agreement with other competent authorities (the entity responsible for performing the duty of agreement). The article also looks at matters that, based on specific provisions, cannot be the subject of a civic legislative initiative. It primarily uses an analytical‑dogmatic research method, drawing on monographs and scholarly articles on the studies of administrative law, along with administrative court judgments.
