Local governments to administer PKP subsidy

Local authorities plan to divide zł.100 million between 16 voivodeships, while the other zł.100 million will be shared among them according to their share of regional lines. However, once again there is speculation that PKP will not get the full zł.550 million, but the Finance Minister assured that local governments will get additional funds if they will not be able to finance their rail network from their own funds. However, the president of PKP Regional Lines Janusz Dettlaff warns that there will be a storm if the additional money does not come through. (Puls Biznesu, p. 7) J.J.
