A legislative proposal by Poland 2050 aimed at reducing political influence in state-owned enterprises has been rejected in parliamentary committee sessions. The initiative, led by MP Rafał Komarewicz, sought to amend the appointment process for supervisory boards within these companies.

The proposal stipulated that 30 percent of supervisory board members in state-owned enterprises would be appointed by a newly established Good Governance Committee, rather than the Minister of State Assets. These appointees would be prohibited from holding political party membership and from having served as members of parliament, senators, or members of the European Parliament within five years before their appointment.

Despite these measures to combat nepotism – a key platform for Poland 2050 – the proposal faced criticism from coalition partners. Ultimately, it did not pass through the parliamentary committees, halting its progress in the legislative process.
