The Supreme Court of Poland dismissed the claim for unpaid wages by a town council member who was absent from work to attend mandatory council sessions. The court held that the 1991 regulation removed salary entitlements for performing council duties, distinguishing them from being summoned by external authorities. Consequently, the member received no wage compensation for time spent in mandatory legislative activities.
