Abstract
The fundamental tasks relating to environmental protection are performed mainly by the Polish Diet [Seim].The adoption of new legal acts, the performance of the supervisory function and the formulation of an environmental protection policy fall within the extensive competence of Poland’s legislative body, which is restricted only by its obligations under the relevant international treaties and, in the context of the country’s planned accession to the EU, European law.
