The request of a group of Deputies concerned the assessment of the constitutionality of the provisions of the act, according to which the termination of pregnancy may be performed by a doctor in the event when prenatal tests or other medical conditions indicate a high probability of severe and irreversible fetal impairment or an incurable life-threatening disease; in this case, termination of pregnancy is permissible until the moment of fetus becoming able to live independently outside of the pregnant woman’s body. In the position of the Sejm, it was requested that this provision be declared inconsistent with Article 38 of the Constitution in connection with the principle of specificity of legal provisions, derived from Article 2, Article 30, Article 31 para 3 and Article 32 para 1 of the Constitution.
In the Sejm’s position on the Leszno City Council’s motion, it has been stated that article 40 para. 3 3 of the Act on Communal Self-government is consistent with the Constitution to the extent in which it allows the issuance of provisions for the maintenance of order only within the scope not regulated in separate acts or other generally binding regulations. The City Council filed the motion in connection with doubts as to whether it is permissible to establish by the council of the commune, by means of issuing provisions for the maintenance of order, a ban on selling psychoactive substances known as boosters. In the Sejm’s opinion, the matter covered by these provisions for the maintenance of order has been regulated by separate acts of law and therefore it is not possible to regulate this matter differently by local law.
