Commissioners question compensation for Polish energy producers

The Commission does not question the necessity of terminating the contracts nor of paying compensation to the producers, but they want to be sure that they do not breach European competition rules. At present, the total value of compensation exceeds zł.15 billion, leading some members of the Commission to question whether the compensation on offer is too high. The next meeting with EC members will take place at the end of March. (Rzeczpospolita, p. B3) A.F.
