Hołownia:
I Assure the Prime Minister That After His Status Clarifies, We Will Meet. I Will Ask Him Many Questions
- When I think of Prime Minister Morawiecki, it reminds me of Schrödinger's cat phenomenon [...]. It was a cat that was simultaneously in the box and also outside the box. And I have the impression, when I listen to, read, and watch the Prime Minister, when I see what comes to the Marshal's desk from his side, that we are dealing with Prime Minister Schrödinger, who on one hand is the Prime Minister, but on the other hand, is not the Prime Minister - said Szymon Hołownia at a press conference.
- Prime Minister Morawiecki announced that if I invite him, he will gladly meet with me to discuss the projects that are arriving. I want to assure the Prime Minister that such a meeting will take place, immediately after his status clarifies, because at the moment, as I understand it, he is on one hand the dismissed Prime Minister of a government that has been entrusted with duties, but is only administering, and on the other hand, he is also a person who has not yet formed a new government. When this new government is formed by him and sworn in by the President, I will immediately meet with such an sanctioned Prime Minister to ask him many questions regarding what is currently flowing into the Sejm - he continued.
- Among other things, a bill related to the budget has arrived from the government. I will ask the Prime Minister why the budget has not been submitted. [...] Parliamentary analyses clearly indicate that the budget submitted by Mr. Morawiecki's government in September has been discontinued, meaning that immediately after the new Sejm was formed, this budget should have been submitted once again. We did not receive a budget, we received a supplementary bill. Yesterday evening, another proposal, five minutes before the Sejm Presidium, we received an insertion [...] regarding zero VAT on food. This will be my next question for the Prime Minister: why, if the MPs of his party are submitting an amendment on the necessity of introducing or extending zero VAT on food [...] then why did the Prime Minister not include zero VAT on food in the budget that he submitted to the Sejm? - he went on to say.
- Now something is being postulated that, as I understand it, contradicts the Prime Minister's will, which he expressed when writing the budget. So, is it the case that his political grouping is doing something against the Prime Minister's will? However, if the Prime Minister today, after reflection, acknowledges that this mistake needs to be corrected and VAT on food extended, he himself admitted today in an interview that he can do it by decree. I understand, therefore, that in this way he will secure zero VAT on food for Poles, and we will deal with the bill [...] in a normal, honest, and reliable manner [...]. Among these bills, there is also the bill on loan holidays, this bill has been sent by me for analysis [...] we are of course taking this project seriously. [...] The bill on shopping Sundays, meaning, in reality, about free 24th December [...] we will process this bill. [...] A draft resolution calling on the government to de facto block work on the amendments to the European Union treaties. This project is very serious, because it wants to impose obligations on the Polish government and Polish MEPs by way of a resolution. We will send this project to the European Commission - he added.
