Polish government applied to the European Commission for approval to support Poczta Polska, state-controlled postal operator with PLN 367 million, Rzeczpospolita daily reported.
Poczta Polska claims it needs only PLN 10 million. The money would cover the loss the firm recorded due to its duties as so called designed operator (since 2013 for three years). Poczta Polska had to service the clients five days a week regardless if its profitable or not. The daily said that the operator lost some PLN 95 million after first year.
The EU will analyze if the operator needs such support.
