Law and Justice wants to abolish copper and silver tax

Poland's main opposition party, Law and Justice (PiS) will submit  a bill on copper and silver tax exemption to the Sejm, the Polish Press Agency reported. Mariusz Błaszaczak, the head of PiS parliamentary club stressed that the party drafted the bill because of the decreasing profitability of Polish miners. KGHM, Poland's biggest copper miner, has been feeling the effect of falling prices in the international markets the most severely, as its market capitalization may drop by PLN 4 billion. The miner's market rate shot up by over 10 percent after the announcement.
