Kontrola zakazu łączenia stanowisk w radach nadzorczych spółek - budowanie zaufania do państwa

In his article, the author discusses organisational and legal aspects related to the ban on combining functions in supervisory bodies of several commercial law companies. These issues are analysed in relation to audits of compliance with the law in the field. The author presents the mutual relations between two legal acts (the so called chimney act and the anticorruption act) whose application is sometimes unclear. Later in his article, the author discusses the understanding of the notions of appointment versus designation of a candidate for a supervisory board, identifying basic differences that are of crucial importance from the perspective of compliance with the anticorruption act. Furthermore, the author discusses the consequences of breaching the provisions of the chimney act, and the issue of responsibility for decisions taken.
