The oral statement of the delegation of Poland and its explanations and clarifications and the discussion that followed complemented the written information provided. 2. Positive aspects 85. The Committee notes with appreciation the impressive and successful efforts made by the State party that have led to major transformation in the political, social, economic, legislative and institutional spheres in Poland. 86. The Committee notes in particular: (a) The adoption of the new Constitution which entered into force on 17 October 1997 and which contains new elements for the defence of freedoms and the rights of citizens, stipulates the respect of international law binding on Poland and ensures the precedence of international agreements over domestic law in case of conflict; (b) The introduction in the new Constitution of the norm that stipulates that "no one be subjected to torture or cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment", which is an important step towards achieving the requirements and recommendations of the Committee, namely that a definition of torture which fully covers all the elements in the definition contained in article 1 of the Convention be incorporated in domestic law; (c) The abolition of the death penalty; 21
