Polish President Karol Nawrocki has vetoed seven laws in two weeks, dismissing government amendments to the ‘lex Kamilek’ child protection legislation.
Sejm Repudiation
The Sejm’s Law and Order Committee dismissed the President’s decisions, arguing the provisions posed no threat to children while offering administrative relief to schools.
Acceleration of Veto Use
The President’s office claims the acceleration of veto power is part of a broader strategy to defend children’s rights, despite concerns about its feasibility and societal impact.
Economy and Energy Concerns
Energy sector observers expressed concern over potential price inflation triggered by the vetoes, particularly in the renewable energy sector.
Future Uncertainty
Coalition politicians are uncertain about the President’s commitment to future legislation, amid concerns about potential backlash from the public.
