- Returning to the bill on the Polish Defence Investment Fund, as this is the hottest topic. Ladies and gentlemen, we have submitted this bill for preliminary analysis to the legislative office and the Office of Expertise and Regulatory Impact - said Włodzimierz Czarzasty at a press conference.

- Based on the information I received, I will not assign a printing number to this bill. [...] There are very serious doubts regarding the constitutionality of this act - he continued.

- Article 221 of the Constitution states: legislative initiative regarding the budget law, the provisional budget law, amendments to the budget law, the public debt borrowing law, and, and this is a very important part, the law on granting financial guarantees by the state, shall solely rest with the Council of Ministers - he went on to say.

- In the presidential bill that you sent, Article 21 contains the following proposal: financial obligations of Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego arising from the granting of a loan referred to in paragraph 4, are covered by the guarantee of the State Treasury represented by the minister responsible for public finance - he added.

- According to our lawyers, the presidential bill contradicts Article 221 of the Constitution, which grants the exclusive right to legislative initiative in the matter of granting financial guarantees by the state to the government. The President has no right to introduce a bill on this matter - he pointed out.
