As many as 98% of Polish municipalities have received aid under the government’s Strategic Investment Programme, Mateusz Morawiecki, the prime minister, has said.
According to Morawiecki, each of the municipalities benefiting from the programme has seen at least one project approved.
“We need an economic model that is based on solidarity, one in which the state, through the quality of management of public finance and financial institutions, is able to leave more money in citizens’ pockets and spend more on investments, even in the smallest municipalities,” the prime minister said.
“We need a strong modernisation stimulus,” he continued. “We have funds not only from the National Recovery Fund (a post-pandemic recovery fund financed by the EU, which is yet to be approved by Brussels), but also from (regular) EU funds and unprecedented funds from the state budget.” (The First News/Business World Magazine)
