Opinia prawna w sprawie ujawniania w Rejestrze Korzyści zagranicznej wizyty sfinansowanej przez zapraszającego odbytej przez posła jako członka zespołu parlamentarnego

The article addresses the question of whether an invitation to members of parliamentary team to visit a foreign country at the expense of the inviting party should be declared in the Register of Interests (referred to in Article 35a(3)(4) of the Act on the Exercise of the Mandate of a Deputy or Senator). The author concludes that such visit should be declared by Deputies in the Register of Interests. The situation would be different if the supposed trip was at the same time that referred to Article 7(8)(2) of the Standing Orders of the Sejm, i.e. a trip made at the request of the Sejm, the Marshal of the Sejm or a committee, and approved by the Presidium of the Sejm. Therefore, it might be treated as a trip connected with the performance of a mandate of a Deputy and, hence, would not be subject to declaration in the Register.
