Infrastructure Minister Janczyk resigns following controversial inspection
Deputy Infrastructure Minister, Wojciech Janczyk, has resigned from his post
due to accusations against him in the press. According to an article
published by Rzeczpospolita, Sejm deputies criticized Janczyk for signing an
agreement with PriceWaterhouseCoopers on provision of consultancy services
for the Management of National Roads and Highways (GDDKiA), which they
considered too expensive. The ministerial inspection of the case showed that
no abuses had occurred though the payoff system was faulty. Following the
inspection, GDDKiA's deputy manager was dismissed. Janczyk explained he
resigned as he did not get on with other politicians from the Sejm Committee
on Infrastructure, in which the leading figure is Boguslaw Liberadzki (SLD).
