Receiver accused of misdeeds as SSPH lodges complaint

"The receiver has started the sale of assets without an initial inventory assessment or calculating their value, which can only be done if the sold goods can be easily destroyed. Ships do not break easily - they are not bananas," said Grzegorz Huszcz, SSPH's deputy president, adding that due to the receiver's actions the company's assets have been reduced by some zł.200 million. It seems, however, that such complaints will only stimulate the receiver to sell off more assets as quickly as possible. Indeed, while the receiver could not reach an agreement with the Industrial Development Agency (ARP), the new owner of the Szczecin shipyard, for over a year, it has announced it will sign a contract today.
