Slawomir Cytrycki, the new Treasury Minister yesterday declared that he intends to obtain zl. 9.1 billion from privatization as envisaged in the annual budget. Cytrycki is planning to go through all the privatization plans which have been drafted so far. "I declare that I will do my best to succeed with meeting this target," Cytrycki said. However, the success will depend on several key and difficult privatization processes including the privatization of the largest retail bank PKO BP, insurer PZU and Bank Gospodarki Zywnosciowej.
