The April Novelization (Polish: Nowela kwietniowa) was a set of changes (constitutional amendments) to the 1952 Constitution of the People's Republic of Poland, agreed in April 1989, in the aftermath of the Polish Round Table Agreement.[1]
Among key changes were:
- restoration of the Senate of Poland and the post of the president of Poland (the latter annulling the power of the Polish United Workers' Party general secretary)[2]
- introduction of the National Council of the Judiciary (Krajowa Rada Sądownictwa)
- changes to the electoral legislation, in order to make elections more free and fair
- powers of the Sejm were adjusted[2]
The 1952 constitution would be even further reformed by the December Novelization and Small Constitution of 1992, and finally replaced in 1997 by a completely new current Constitution of Poland.
