Work on legislation

Kosiniak-Kamysz also commented on reports about preparations at the Ministry of National Defense for a so-called pre-war law. According to him, the draft is intended to adapt legislation to the current geopolitical situation and take into account lessons from the war in Ukraine.

According to Rzeczpospolita, the document is intended to streamline the defense management system and enable faster action even before the formal introduction of martial law. Poland's Ministry of Defense told the newspaper that the aim of the draft is to strengthen the country's defense capability, improve cooperation between the armed forces and internal security services, and adapt regulations to hybrid, cyber and disinformation threats.
