The treaty on Stability, Coordination and Governance in the Economic and Monetary Union dated 2 March 2012 (called the fiscal act) is the law rela-ting to the economic and budgetary matters of the Member States of the European Union, mainly to the deficit and public debt. The treaty in focus encroaches on the budgetary powers of the Parliament and the government. On February 2012, the Parliament passed the act of law entitling the President of the Republic of Poland to ratify the treaty. The procedure for the ratification of the treaty appears to be questionable. A question arises whether the content of the treaty justifies the adoption of the law authorizing the ratification by ordinary or qualified majority (in accordance with Article 89, paragraph 1 of the Constitution, or paragraph 1 and 2 of Article 90 of the Constitution).References
