Infrastructure Minister joins chorus of criticism against tax reform

Infrastructure Minister, Marek Pol, publicly announced on Friday that he is not pleased with Finance Minister, Grzegorz Kolodko's principles of the proposed tax reform, which envisages cancelling most tax breaks. The Cabinet is to discuss the proposals on March 18. "Liquidating housing tax relief would not be a good solution. The present system encourages people to build apartments and not to save money on bank accounts. It also leads to building houses on credit," said Pol. After Deputy Economy and Labor Minister, Jacek Piechota, Marek Pol, is the second member of the government to publicly criticize the suggested program. (Parkiet, p. 1) A.K.
