Sunday trade ban to be expanded gradually

The Law and Justice (PiS) government announced new amendments to the draft bill on Sunday trade ban. The new law would come into force in March next year and would cover two Sundays per month, while in 2019 the ban would be expanded to three Sundays per month, and in 2020 it would cover all Sundays (with some exceptions). The initial proposal was supposed to come into force in January two years, and cover two Sundays per month without gradual expansion in the coming years. The new draft is more in line with the initial PiS proposal which covered all Sundays.
