Wrinkles in proposed enfranchisement bill to be ironed out by the Senate
The controversial enfranchisement law will now be discussed in the Senate.
The bill grants the ownership of tenement apartments and houses to people
inhabiting them to acknowledge the part they played creating the heritage
during communist-era. The Senate is predicted to propose an amendment that
will extend the law to the owners of small allotments. More crucially, the
deputies are expected to amend the bill so it could not be deemed
unconstitutional. Opponents of the bill maintain that the new law will
result in chaos. Senators will also consider ways to compensate the
voivodships for the loss of revenues from apartments. (Rzeczpospolita, page
