Will the appointment of NFZ president trigger the resignation of Health Minister?

The Prime Minister has appointed Aleksander Nauman as the president of the National Health Fund (NFZ). According to unofficial information, in protest against this decision Health Minister, Marek Balicki, is going to step down. The National Health Fund Act becomes law today. Appointing a new NFZ president just before the act becomes binding indicates that the controversies between Miller and Balicki went on to the very last moment. "I cannot imagine that a Health Minister has no influence on the Prime Minister's selection of a new candidate," Balicki said. In January Balicki excluded Nauman from taking decisions in the Health Ministry as he wished to have a different partner. (Rzeczpospolita, p. A2) A.Z.
