Constitutional Tribunal Judges Clash Over Chief Justice's Term, Poland Mulls Windfall Tax

POLAND
  • Constitutional Tribunal spokesperson noted that its General Assembly of the Judges passed a resolution which states that there are no grounds for the body to select candidates to succeed Chief Justice Przylebska. The resolution came amid controversy over the expiry date of Przylebska's term, which saw six out of the Tribunal's fifteen judges sign a petition to choose a new Chief Justice. The conflict within the Tribunal raised the risk of obstructing its functioning at a time when the government is waiting for the top judicial body to review legislation needed to unlock EU recovery funds. Onet cites sources who questioned the legality of the resolution and noted that if the rebellious judges refuse to participate in the Tribunal's deliberations, the top court will not have a quorum to issue a ruling on the key bill.
  • Poland's State Assets Minister Jacek Sasin told Radio Plus that the government is working on a windfall tax for oil and mining companies. Ministers floated the idea last year, provoking a backlash from business lobbies and triggering a stock sell-off.
  • There are no major local data releases scheduled for today, with participants awaiting next week's NBP monetary policy decision, which will be accompanied by an updated set of economic projections.
