The gloss concerns the Act on voluntary fire brigades, which is located in the area of fire protection law. The considerations undertaken in the study focus on the decision of the Supreme Administrative Court concerning the resolution on the amount of the cash equivalent for firefighters of voluntary fire brigades for participation in rescue operations and actions, training and exercises. The publication criticises the court's thesis regarding the content of the equivalence resolution. The NSA wrongly allows for the possibility of repeating the content of Article 15 of the Act on Volunteer Fire Brigades in the equivalence resolution. The above problems are also related to the issue of § 137 of the Rules of Legislative Technique presented in the publication.
