UOKiK to gain new tools in fight against dishonest companies

The regulations on consumer protection and competition await a number of major changes this year. EU directives and regulations await implementation into the Polish legal system, thanks to which UOKiK will gain new powers, including those that were previously reserved for the Police or special services. In the next few months, the office also intends to wage war on entrepreneurs who conduct trade shows, relying on unreliable sales mechanisms and misleading consumers.
