AB - One of the foundations of a democratic state of law is to base power and public administration on the principle of decentralization. Public administration tasks are performed by both central and local government administration bodies. Moreover, these tasks are entrusted to other public law entities, e.g. special self-governments (professional, economic), administrative establishments, foundations, and associations. In Poland, there is currently a noticeable process of centralization of power and limitation of the independence of local governments, in particular territorial and professional ones. The author briefly presents the essence of decentralization, the principle of self-government and the justification for leaving autonomy to the self-government of attorneys-at-law in the context of the arguments raised in the application to the Constitutional Tribunal of Poland in case file no. K 6/22.
