PM sums up six months of cabinet

Poland’s Prime Minister Ewa Kopacz summed up the first six months of her administration’s work at a Tuesday’s press conference. It took her 15 minutes to recapitulate the government's achievements, which include the adoption of the Convention on Preventing and Combating Violence and the act aimed at regulating the in-vitro procedure. Kopacz also reminded that the government had increased the state spending on the army to a level of 2 percent of the GDP and had increased pro-family funds. The PM also mentioned the indexation of pensions and the increase in employment as her accomplishments. "The government's aim is to increase the number of workplaces and to ensure that those who have a job would not have to fear losing it," Kopacz said. Kopacz took post last autumn replacing Donald Tusk who was nominated President of the European Council.
