Another property restitution draft in the pipeline

According to the draft, former owners of property or their descendants would receive coupons, which they could exchange for property set aside for this purpose or sell them back to the state. There is no final position on whether the coupons would be tradable. There would be no restitution in kind of the property actually seized. The restitution would mainly be financed from the Restitution Fund, which has been collecting a portion of privatization proceeds since 1989. (Gazeta Wyborcza, p. 22) T.J.
