Part IV. Questions On Dealing with Citizens’ Affairs in Our Voivodeship
Question 20: Who in our Voivodeship makes administrative decisions affecting the lives of citizens and how can I find out about decisions concerning me?
20.1 Individual administrative decisions concerning citizens of our Voivodeship, entrepreneurs and other entities are issued by executive authorities, including the Mayor, President of the County Board of Executives, Voivode, Minister of the Voivodeship, as well as heads of Voivodeship Executive Agencies. However, as the number of individual decisions issued is significant, the competent authorities may decide to delegate the power to issue such decisions to other employees of the subnational agencies of our Voivodeship.
20.2 In order to facilitate citizens' contact with local government administration, the Voivodeship Council of Ministers creates and administers the modelowe.gov.pl portal, on which an individual profile may be created by every citizen of our Voivodeship, or a legal person, who has a trusted profile in the public electronic identification system operated by national authorities. This portal contains, among other things, up-to-date information on persons entitled to make individual decisions in our communes, counties, cities and the Voivodeship.
20.3 A citizen of our Voivodeship, a legal person or other entity (through their representatives) may give their consent for our Voivodeship authorities to deliver all administrative decisions concerning that citizen or a legal person electronically and to submit all applications electronically an individual profile on modelowe.gov.pl. Since the cost of delivering decisions by electronic means is substantially lower than in case of a traditional registered letter, a Voivodeship Resolution may introduce tax preferences for citizens, legal persons or other entities that have agreed to receive interact with the Voivodeship administration by electronic means only.
