Odpowiedzialność administracyjna sprzedawcy detalicznego za wprowadzenie do obrotu artykułu rolno-spożywczego zafałszowanego
(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 2012) Trempała, Michał
The focus of the paper is the liability of a retailer before administrative courts for marketing fake or counterfeit agricultural products, and resolution of the doubts regarding the statutory regulation of the issue. The monetary penalty for the above act constitutes an important means of agricultural product market supervision and is one of the major stra-tegic elements of that market. The statutory regulation of that matter is not free from de-fects, thus entailing certain doubts as to the construction of the applicable legislation. The author finishes the paper with a conclusion that complete elimination of the procedure in which fake or counterfeit products are introduced for trading in the market is not possible due to the gains it generates to those who do so. Only monetary penalties in amounts that would ‘eat out’ the gains might be an efficient remedy. Although theoretically possible, this solution fails to work in practice.
