Marek Ast on the Judges Disciplinary Act: United Right Will Vote to Reject the Senate's Motion, Thus Upholding the Act. Obviously in its Unchanged Form, as There Were No Amendments.

- The situation is absolutely black and white. If there were amendments [to the judges disciplinary act], if there had been an attempt to improve this project in some way, to introduce new solutions into it, then it would indeed be possible to discuss, to consider whether to accept some of the Senate's amendments and reject others. Here, however, we have a situation where the Senate states that we do not like this act, we have criticized it wholesale, and we believe it should not enter the legal circulation at all. We hold a completely different position. We do not see the act in any way violating, even, the Polish Constitution, and for that reason, of course, the United Right will vote to reject the Senate's motion, meaning to uphold the act. Obviously in its unchanged form, because there were no amendments to it - stated Marek Ast in an interview with Jacek Prusinowski on Radio Plus.
