TY - JOUR TI - Commentary on appealing local plans by environmental organizations AU - Rokicka-Murszewska, Karolina TI - Commentary on appealing local plans by environmental organizations AB - Environmental organizations are increasingly active in monitoring the activities of public author- ities. Regarding planning procedures, they have numerous rights– they can express their opin- ions, submit applications to the local plan or participate in public consultations. However, they are not entitled to file acomplaint to the provincial administrative court against the local spatial development plan, as they do not have alegal standing. This is because they would have to demonstrate a“legal interest” in challenging aresolution of the municipal council concerning the plan. Current legal regulations do not always sufficiently protect the public interest, which sug- gests the need for further reforms in the procedural rights of environmental organizations so they can fulfil their role more effectively.
