Description The article deals with the impact of the Covid pandemic on the legal system. It points out to the deficiencies in the current legislation. Its basic idea is that the fundamental legal solution to states of emergency must be represented by constitutional regulation. It determines areas in which the Constitutional Act on the Security of the Czech Republic should be amended. Constitutional embodiment of emergency lawmaking with executive power is suggested along with introducing controls by the Chamber of Deputies and with obligatory inspection of emergency legislation acts by the Constitutional Court. It is also suggested for a form of legislation to be thoroughly used for blanket bans and orders in preference to a form of a special administrative decision – measure of a general nature.
