On 6 and 7 July 2025, the Council of State, led by Vice-President Didier-Roland Tabuteau, visited Warsaw for a bilateral seminar at the Supreme Administrative Court of Poland (Naczelny Sad Administracyjny).
The seminar opened with a conference by the Vice-President on the French Council of State and Public Action. The heads of the two institutions then presented the current challenges faced by administrative justice in their respective countries.
The seminar continued with two round table discussions, each introduced by two French and Polish judges, on the following topics:
the constitutional control exercised by administrative judges over administrative acts,
judges' freedom of expression.
* Like France, Poland has an autonomous administrative court system. It has two levels: the Supreme Administrative Court and 16 provincial administrative courts. The Supreme Administrative Court has no advisory powers comparable to those of the Council of State.
