Amid a coronavirus epidemic that has dented the economy, the Polish government has adopted plans to amend this year’s budget, with the deficit expected to reach PLN 109.3 billion.
“The government is adjusting the budget for 2020 to the situation related to the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic,” the Government Information Center (CIR) said.
“The spread of the coronavirus has contributed to the biggest economic crisis in recent years, which contributed to a sharp slowdown in economic activity in Poland and other countries affected by the pandemic,” CIR added.
