Kluska package may do more harm than good

The draft amendment of the bill on the freedom of economic activity still contains a provision which allows for several simultaneous inspections. "Unfortunately, the most dangerous provision remains," stated Jaroslaw Chalas, an expert from the Business Centre Club (BCC). "So far, practice shows that state institutions used the provision to multiply the number of inspections," he added. There are currently around 40 institutions which may impose an inspection on a company. "The Kluska package was to decrease the number of exceptions from the rule of one inspection at any one time, but the draft contains even more such exceptions," stated Katarzyna Urbanska, an expert with the Polish Confederation for Private Employers Lewiatan.
