[Paths of food hygiene in Poland].
Varying economic conditions and management systems in different countries have determined the foundation of legal regulations for sanitary food control. The legal system in Poland in the years 1795-1928 was subject to the laws of three partitioning powers: Prussia, Russia and the Austro-Hungarian Empire. On March 28, 1928, the President of Poland passed three decrees equivalent to acts which had a significant impact on sanitary food control. The decrees took into account the following issues: animal protection, food products inspection and evaluation of slaughter animals and meat. For the people of Poland, who in the first half of the 20th century lived within the boundaries drawn by the partitioners, it was important that the legal systems had been based on German law, regarded the best possible at that time. Although the decrees were based on Prussian and Austrian regulations, the infrastructure of food production, of food trade and hygiene in Poland until 1945 was built on the Russian administrative foundation (2/3 of Polish territory) (Fig. 1). After World War II, the economic system established in Poland was subordinate to Soviet rules. This included food manufacturing plants as well as the system of food control. In 1989 Poland came through deep political and economic changes, but the legal system has remained the same. However, there are disputes about the scope between the National Hygiene Inspectors (PIS) operating under the Ministry of Health and Veterinary Hygiene Inspectors (WIS) subject to Woivod's Office.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
