novo zakonodavstvo o poljskom pravosudnom sustavu koje je donio poljski parlament i koje izaziva ozbiljnu zabrinutost u pogledu neovisnosti sudstva te se zbog njega znatno povećava sustavna prijetnja vladavini prava u Poljskoj, a uključuje:

the law on the Supreme Court; approved by the Senate on 22 July 2017; this law was referred back to the Sejm on 24 July 2017.
Komisija je preporučila da poljske vlasti poduzmu sljedeće mjere koje su već zatražene u Preporuci od 27. srpnja 2016.:
THE LACK OF AN INDEPENDENT AND LEGITIMATE CONSTITUTIONAL REVIEW
u potpunosti provedu odluke Ustavnog suda od 3. i 9. prosinca 2015. kojima se zahtijeva da tri suca koje je u listopadu 2015. zakonito predložila prethodna zakonodavna vlast preuzmu svoju dužnost sudaca na Ustavnom sudu, a da tri suca koje je nova zakonodavna vlast predložila bez valjane pravne osnove ne preuzmu mjesto sudaca bez pravovaljanog izbora; zbog toga se od predsjednika Republike zahtijeva da žurno uzme prisegu triju sudaca koje je izabrala prethodna zakonodavna vlast;
In its Recommendation of 21 December 2016, the Commission recommended that the Polish authorities take the following actions already requested in its Recommendation of 27 July 2016:
objave i u potpunosti provedu odluke Ustavnog suda od 9. ožujka 2016. i odluku od 11. kolovoza 2016. o zakonu o Ustavnom sudu od 22. srpnja 2016. te ostale odluke donesene nakon tog datuma, kao i buduće odluke;
implement fully the judgments of the Constitutional Tribunal of 3 and 9 December 2015 which requires that the three judges that were lawfully nominated in October 2015 by the previous legislature can take up their function of judge in the Constitutional Tribunal, and that the three judges nominated by the new legislature without a valid legal basis do not take up the post of judge without being validly elected; for this reason, the President of the Republic is required to urgently take the oath of the three judges elected by the previous legislature;
osiguraju da se pri svakoj reformi zakona o Ustavnom sudu poštuju odluke Ustavnog suda, u potpunosti uzimaju u obzir mišljenja Venecijanske komisije i osigura da se učinkovitost Ustavnog suda kao jamca Ustava ne narušava;
publish and implement fully the judgments of the Constitutional Tribunal of 9 March 2016 and the judgment of 11 August 2016 concerning the law of 22 July 2016 on the Constitutional Tribunal and other judgments rendered after that date and future judgments;
suzdrže se od postupaka i javnih izjava kojima bi se mogli narušiti legitimitet i učinkovitost Ustavnog suda.
ensure that any reform of the law on the Constitutional Tribunal respects the judgments of the Constitutional Tribunal, takes the Opinions of the Venice Commission fully into account and ensures that the effectiveness of the Constitutional Tribunal as a guarantor of the Constitution is not undermined;
Uz te je mjere Komisija preporučila da poljske vlasti:
refrain from actions and public statements which could undermine the legitimacy and efficiency of the Constitutional Tribunal.
osiguraju da Ustavni sud može hitno i učinkovito ocijeniti ustavnost zakona o statusu sudaca, zakona o organizaciji i postupcima te provedbenog zakona te da se predmetne odluke bez odlaganja objave i u potpunosti provedu;
In addition to these actions, the Commission recommended that the Polish authorities:
osiguraju da se ne imenuje novi predsjednik Ustavnog suda dok se ne objave i u potpunosti provedu odluke Ustavnog suda o ustavnosti novih zakona te dok tri suca koje je u listopadu 2015. zakonito predložio 7. saziv Sejma ne preuzmu svoje sudske dužnosti na Sudu;
ensure that the Constitutional Tribunal can as a matter of urgency effectively review the constitutionality of the law on the Status of Judges, the law on Organisation and Proceedings and the Implementing law, and that the judgments concerned are published without delay and implemented fully;
osiguraju da, dok se na zakonit način ne imenuje novi predsjednik Ustavnog suda, predsjednika mijenja potpredsjednik Suda, a ne vršitelj dužnosti predsjednika ili osoba koja je imenovana predsjednicom Ustavnog suda 21. prosinca 2016.
ensure that no appointment of the new President of the Constitutional Tribunal take place as long as the judgments by the Constitutional Tribunal on the constitutionality of the new laws have not been published and implemented fully, and as long as the three judges that were lawfully nominated in October 2015 by the 7th term of the Sejm have not taken up their judicial functions in the Tribunal;
Komisija primjećuje da nije provedena ni jedna od preporučenih mjera koje je bila utvrdila:
ensure that as long as a new President of the Constitutional Tribunal has not been lawfully appointed, he is replaced by the Vice-President of the Tribunal and not by an acting President, or by the person appointed as President of the Tribunal on 21 December 2016.
tri suca koje je u listopadu 2015. zakonito predložila prethodna zakonodavna vlast još uvijek nisu u mogućnosti preuzeti svoju dužnost suca na Ustavnom sudu.
The Commission observes that none of the recommended actions set out by the Commission have been implemented:
S druge je strane vršiteljica dužnosti predsjednika Ustavnog suda trima sucima koje je 8. saziv Sejma predložio bez valjane pravne osnove odobrila preuzimanje dužnosti;
the three judges that were lawfully nominated in October 2015 by the previous legislature have still not been able to take up their function of judge in the Constitutional Tribunal.
tri najvažnije odluke Ustavnog suda od 9. ožujka 2016., 11. kolovoza 2016. i 7. studenoga 2016. još uvijek nisu objavljene i uklonjene su iz upisnika Suda koji je dostupan na njegovu web-mjestu.
By contrast, the three judges nominated by the 8th term of the Sejm without a valid legal basis were admitted to take up their function by the acting President of the Tribunal;
Za razliku od toga, ostale odluke koje još nisu bile objavljene u vrijeme donošenja Preporuke od 21. prosinca 2016. objavljene su 29. prosinca 2016. u Službenom listu;
three important judgements of the Constitutional Tribunal of 9 March 2016, 11 August 2016 and 7 November 2016 have still not been published and have been removed from the register of the Tribunal which is accessible from its website.
Zakon o statusu sudaca, zakon o organizaciji i postupcima i provedbeni zakon još uvijek nisu poslani Ustavnom sudu radi hitne učinkovite ocjene njihove ustavnosti, a nova predsjednica Ustavnog suda imenovana je prije no što je takva ocjena provedena;
Other judgements which were not yet published at the time of the adoption of the Recommendation of 21 December 2016 have by contrast been published on 29 December 2016 in the Journal of Laws;
nakon isteka mandata bivšeg predsjednika Ustavnog suda još uvijek nije na zakonit način imenovan novi predsjednik.
the law on the status of judges, the law on Organisation and Proceedings and the Implementing law, have still not been subject, as a matter of urgency, to the effective review of their constitutionality by the Constitutional Tribunal and the appointment of the new President of the Constitutional Tribunal took place before such review can occur;
Bivšeg predsjednika nije zamijenio potpredsjednik Ustavnog suda, već vršiteljica dužnosti predsjednika te naknadno osoba koja je imenovana predsjednicom Ustavnog suda 21. prosinca 2016.
after the end of the mandate of the former President of the Constitutional Tribunal, a new President has still not been lawfully appointed.
Kako je objasnila u svojoj Preporuci od 21. prosinca 2016.
The former President was not replaced by the Vice-President of the Tribunal but by an acting President and, subsequently, by the person appointed as President of the Tribunal on 21 December 2016.
[6], Komisija smatra da je postupak koji je doveo do imenovanja nove predsjednice Ustavnog suda u osnovi manjkav u pogledu vladavine prava.
As explained in its Recommendation of 21 December 2016 [6], the Commission considers that the procedure which led to the appointment of a new President of the Tribunal is fundamentally flawed as regards the rule of law.
Postupak je pokrenula vršiteljica dužnosti predsjednika, čije je imenovanje izazvalo ozbiljnu zabrinutost u pogledu načela diobe vlasti i neovisnosti sudstva, koje štiti poljski Ustav.
The procedure was initiated by an acting President whose appointment raised serious concerns as regards the principles of the separation of powers and the independence of the judiciary as protected by the Polish Constitution.
Nadalje, činjenica da je postupak omogućio da u procesu sudjeluju tri suca imenovana u prosincu, koje je nova zakonodavna vlast Sejma nezakonito predložila, čini cjelokupni proces odabira neustavnim.
Furthermore, the fact that the procedure allowed the three ‘December judges’ unlawfully nominated by the new legislature of the Sejm to participate in the process rendered the entire selection process unconstitutional.
Slično tomu, činjenica da suci zakonito izabrani u listopadu nisu mogli sudjelovati u procesu jednako je tako utjecala na ishod i zbog toga proces učinila nevaljanim.
Similarly, the fact that the lawfully elected ‘October judges’ could not participate in the process equally had an impact on the outcome, and therefore vitiated the process.
Štoviše, vrlo kratak rok saziva Glavne skupštine i odbijanje da se sjednica odgodi također su izazvali zabrinutost.
Moreover, the very short notice for the convocation of the General Assembly and the refusal to postpone the meeting raised serious concerns.
Konačno, činjenica da je kandidate izabralo samo šest sudaca nije u skladu s odlukom Ustavnog suda od 7. studenoga 2016. na temelju koje se članak 194. stavak 2.
As regards the composition of the Tribunal the reply, like the previous reply to the Recommendation of 27 July 2016, denies any effect to the judgments of the Constitutional Tribunal of 3 and 9 December 2015.
Kad je riječ o ulozi potpredsjednika Ustavnog suda, u odgovoru se zanemaruje činjenica da se Ustavom izričito priznaje položaj potpredsjednika Ustavnog suda koji se imenuje u skladu s istim postupkom kao i predsjednik Ustavnog suda.
Concerning the selection procedure for the President of the Constitutional Tribunal, the reply ignores the judgment of 7 November 2016 according to which the Constitution requires that the President of the Tribunal shall be appointed from amongst candidates which have obtained a majority vote in the General Assembly of the Tribunal.
Kad je riječ o imenovanju vršiteljice dužnosti predsjednika Ustavnog suda, u odgovoru nije navedena pravna osnova iz Ustava za takvo imenovanje te se smatra da se radilo o iznimnom mehanizmu prilagodbe uvjetovanom izvanrednim okolnostima.
As to the role of the Vice-President of the Tribunal, the reply disregards the fact that the Constitution explicitly recognises the position of Vice-President which is subject to the same appointment procedure as the President of the Tribunal.
Zaključno, Komisija smatra da su neovisnost i legitimitet Ustavnog suda ozbiljno ugroženi te se stoga ustavnost poljskih zakona ne može više učinkovito jamčiti [7].
