These amendments were proposed and adopted by national plebiscite after Józef Piłsudski took power in the May Coup.
There were four main clauses in the amendments.
- The President may dismiss the Sejm (parliament) and the Senate.
- The President may issue acts (rozporządzenia) having statutory power with the approval of the Sejm.
- The Sejm may not dissolve itself.
- If the Sejm cannot agree on the state budget, the budget may be passed by the government.
