The Concept of Spatial Development of the Country 2030 is the most important national strategic document concerned with the spatial development of Poland. It presents not only today's problems of the spatial planning system but most of all contains a lot of key guidelines that dramatically changes the current way of spatial planning. As a natural result of these guidelines the Polish legislation has to change, which is particularly concerned with the law of 27 March 2003 on spatial planning and development. In the years 2013-2015 a lot of changes were introduced in the above-mentioned law. Many of them are individual changes, in particular such that create order in the current provisions of the law. However, some of them are complex changes that have a significant impact on the system of spatial planning. The most important laws that undoubtedly change the system include the law of 24 April 2015 on changes of some laws in connection with reinforcement of landscape protection tools, the law of 9 October 2015 on revitalisation, the law of 9 October 2015 on metropolitan unions. Regarding the guidelines of the Concept of Spatial Development of the Country 2030 it is necessary to acknowledge that the changes introduced in the law of 27 March 2003 on spatial planning and development are insufficient. They treat the provisions of the concept in a very selective way. It is positive that the requirement of developing detailed studies and area balances was introduced at the stage of development of the study of conditions and directions of space development of the commune in order to put a limit on unjustified dispersion of development. On the other hand, the introduced modifications omit the provisions of the concept which assume that the local plan is supposed to be a basis for issuing building permit decisions, and not as right now, decisions of development conditions and that the study becomes a local law document. Moreover, the guidelines of the concept such us introduction of systems that guarantee thorough supervision, monitoring and assessment of the existing spatial development condition were completely ignored in the introduced changes. To sum up it is necessary to state that the changes introduced in the Polish law go in the right direction but are still incomplete. They treat the current issues in a selective way. Therefore, it is necessary to continue the changes in order to fully achieve the goals stipulated in the Concept of the Spatial Development of the Country 2030.
