Ministries and PM's office to take over supervision of state companies
16:33
After liquidation of the Ministry of the Treasury, supervision of companies that previously belonged to it will be transferred to various ministries, while supervision of the appointment of management and supervisory boards will be at the discretion of the Chancellery of the Prime Minister (KPRM), according to Henryk Kowalczyk, a minister in the Chancellery.
The Treasury Ministry is to be liquidated in Q1 of 2017. The government hopes to have a law adopted by the end of 2016 implementing the new model of management of state firms. “Companies will be supervised by individual ministries based on sector. In addition, we plan to create a body in the KPRM which will directly supervise these companies, both operationally and financially. As part of this entity, we would like to set up a council on companies, which would nominate candidates for the managements and supervisory boards,” Kowalczyk explained.
