The article discusses legal acts determining legislative drafting technique in Poland and analyses doctrinal approaches to its understanding. The focus lies on different approaches to determining the nature of legislative technique, in particular the definitions of the Government Legislation Centre, and its importance for the formation of an appropriate legal system. The legal positions of the Constitutional Court of Poland on the role of legislative technique in the legal system of Poland and its importance for the development of a democratic rule of law are presented. It is revealed that the Constitutional Court of Poland considers the principles of the legislative drafting technique as a praxeological canon, which lawmakers cannot ignore. The acts that regulate the matters of the legislative technique in Poland are listed. A thorough analysis of the provisions of the Order of the Chairman of the Council of Ministers of 20 June 2002 in the case of “Principles of the Legislative Technique” is carried out. The main principles of the legislative technique are listed. The structure of the legislative act and the classification of types of regulatory provisions are described.
