Until the adoption of the law on the National Council for the Judiciary, the Polish system was fully in line with these standards since the National Council for the Judiciary was composed of a majority of judges chosen by judges.
Do sprejetja zakona o nacionalnem sodnem svetu je bil poljski sistem povsem v skladu s temi standardi, saj so nacionalni sodni svet sestavljali večinoma sodniki, ki so jih izbrali sodniki.
