Karol Nawrocki continues to grow the expert group around him. On May 3, 2026, the Council of the fresh Constitution at the president of the Republic of Poland was appointed at the Royal Castle. The Authority is to support the preparation of draft amendments to the Basic Act.
Karol Nawrocki pointed out the request for changes in the constitution as early as 2025.
"The Presidential Palace will not only become the place of functioning of the Constitutional Council, but besides the place where we will open, I hope, a national, honest discussion on what the constitution of 2030 will look like," said the president during the speech after winning the elections.
The politician declared his desire to introduce clear and clear principles of cooperation between policies. The first step in this direction is to appoint fresh advisors who, according to the President, are crucial votes in constitutional matters.
First appointments to the Council of the fresh Constitution. For the start of 10 names
As we reported yesterday, the media went over information about a alternatively different composition of the fresh council. It included Paweł Kukiz, Krzysztof Szczucki and Przemysław Wipler. The body was headed by Prof. Dariusz Dudek.
It is possible that speculation will be confirmed, due to the fact that although these names are not found on the authoritative page of the President's list, at this point we are dealing with only the first wave of vocations. The announced composition of the council included:
According to Rafał Leśkiewicz, the President's spokesman, the council is to yet consist of 3 members: expert, political and social. The consequence of combining different specializations is to "brainstorm", to exchange different views and opinions, and all this to make a common project.
The ready draft is to go to parliament, where it will be formally conducted "according to the rules". And it is in this "formal procedure" that opponents of the draft fresh constitution view the biggest drawbacks of the full idea.
Donald Tusk referred to the thought of changing the constitution
"The president is well aware that neither present nor next day nor the day after the constitutional majority for his ideas will be there, so it is more about political play. In my opinion, it will only be another confusion, and present Poland needs first of all stability, said the Prime Minister during the conference before leaving for Armenia.
– The marketers' slogans were as beautiful as today's Polish right. But there was a betrayal at the end. I would appeal to the president and the opposition to learn to abide by this constitution before they engage in tampering with the fresh constitution," appealed Donald Tusk.
The rules for amending the Basic Act are laid down in Article 235 thereof. The requirements to be met to be able to introduce a law amending the Constitution include, inter alia, support for specified action by two-thirds of Members. In practice, specified capacity did not even have Law and Justice after the 2015 and 2019 elections.
