Rafał Brzoska, president of InPost and Deregulation Attorney, announced that by the end of May 2025 he would end his activities in the government's simplification team. As he explained, he returns to his duties in the company due to the fact that “no company is able to make without a leader”.
In an interview with the Polish Press Agency, Brzoska criticised the current legal strategy in Poland, claiming that it favours abroad corporations at the expense of native companies. He was peculiarly harsh about the deficiency of presumption of innocence of the payer and the transfer pricing mechanism, which, in his opinion, allows profits to be made abroad and the taxation base to be reduced in the country.
Meanwhile, Prime Minister Donald Tusk's press conference scheduled for April 17, during which the first effects of the deregulation team's work were to be presented, was unexpectedly cancelled. The authoritative reason was the failure of the package and communication issues in the government.
Commentary on the full situation was posted on social media by Vice president of the “Swojak” Association of Entrepreneurs and Farmers, Artur Szczepek:
‘The balloon breaks. If Prime Minister Donald Tusk wanted to deregulation the regulations, he would benefit from a package prepared by the Ministry of improvement and Technology. Let me remind you that the solutions are in the drawer. It is time to end the “pic and PR” and address the real problems of entrepreneurs from the Polish SME sector. I appeal to you, dear fellow Entrepreneurs – you must start fighting for good economical law and conditions for doing business in Poland, or else they will sweep you off the board”
So far, the Brzoski squad has prepared 173 proposals, of which 108 have been adopted, 11 have already been implemented and 17 are in the legislative process. The Prime Minister announced that the full deregulation package would be presented after Easter.
The debate around the improvement of regulations is getting stronger, and entrepreneurs are increasingly demanding concrete action, not just symbolic gestures.
