Polish Sejm Marshal rebuffs Tribunal funding appeal, cites budget initiative

Sejm Marshal Włodzimierz Czarzasty rejected an appeal by Constitutional Tribunal head Bogdan Święczkowski for guaranteed 2027 funding, stating the budget initiative rests solely with the Council of Ministers and that the finance ministry has not received a plan from the Tribunal's General Assembly. This exchange reflects ongoing friction between the government and the Tribunal over institutional funding and independence.
