MPs and Senators to receive a 20% pay cut - Kaczyński

Law and Justice (PiS) head Jarosław Kaczyński said that a draft bill has been filed with the Sejm that will cut MPs and Senators’ salaries by 20 percent, while Minister will donate the bonuses they received to charity. All financial bonuses for state-controlled companies’ board members will be eliminated. “Before the elections I said that politics is not about making money and the society seems to remember that. That’s where the reaction to the rewards came from and that’s why a large degree of modesty is expected of people in the public service,” said Kaczyński, stressing also that PiS is not in politics for the money and that was the reason for the proposed cuts.
