According to the justification of the draft amendment to the Act on the Supreme Court, the primary goal is to enable judges of the Supreme Court and the Supreme Administrative Court who have retired based on the 2017 Act on the Supreme Court to return to performing judicial functions, as well as the functions of the First President of the Supreme Court and the presidents of chambers of the Supreme Court.

The PiS proposal also deprives the executive branch of the power to decide whether a given judge can continue to actively perform their duties after reaching a certain age and removes "the state of uncertainty regarding the moment a judge transitions to retirement due to reaching a certain age".

The draft also gives "restored" Supreme Court and Supreme Administrative Court judges the possibility to declare their wish to remain retired. Such a judge will be entitled to their full salary ("in the amount of the remuneration received in their last held position").
