“We must bring about the restoration of the normal, constitutional framework for the functioning of the National Council of the Judiciary (KRS),” Poland’s Justice Minister Adam Bodnar told the Lower House of Parliament (Sejm) on Wednesday. He was presenting a draft amendment to the law regarding the body. Bodnar also announced that drafts on such issues as the Supreme Court and the status of the prosecutor’s office would also be presented.

The Polish government has adopted a draft amendment to the Act on the National Council of the Judiciary (KRS) that alters the way judges can be nominated to the body.
