No prior/limited public knowledge of the legislative work on EU part or public/inadequate consultation on the matter? - one of Brussels' distrustful moves to control everything and everywhere was foiled by Poles - but only just. They have already paid their [high] price for joining EU and have been subjected by EU ministers to many concessions and compromises using treats and pressure on Polish officials during so called Poland's EU accession negotiations. We shall watch this space - "the game is not over yet" - we've only gained valuable time. Let’s not stop in our tracks to stop EU clerks from tipping it over either by blocking opposing EU members from their voices being heard or swaying other members to vote against their common sense or even perhaps by twisting the existing voting system to further cripple democratic voting process!

Educate others in this respect and show your solidarity with majority of us.
