KGHM paid PLN 108 mln in metal tax in IV

The Ministry of Finance said that WSE-listed Polish copper giant KGHM paid PLN 108.3 million in tax on copper and silver extraction in April. In the period Jan-April, receipts from taxes came to PLN 382.4 mln or 25 percent of the annual plan, the Finance Ministry's data showed. In 2016 Poland expects to collect PLN 1.53 billion from the metal tax. In December last year, Prime Minister Beata Szydło said Poland should abolish the metal tax, as copper firm KGHM should have money to invest.
