Such an Investment Will Be Subject to Ruthless Scrutiny.

- According to data from the Central Statistical Office, 65% of businesses in this sector [“HoReCa”] suffered during the pandemic. And if we are talking about investments that were actually intended to help diversify businesses operating in this area. A model investment from my perspective would be, for example, a hotel that wants to build a restaurant on its premises, in the same location or another, to diversify. Or to improve quality by replacing furniture, for example – stated Jan Szyszko in the program “Poranek TOK FM”.

- However, if we are dealing with investments that involved the purchase of boats, sailboats, which are not available for rent. […] Then, then such an investment will be subject to ruthless scrutiny. And, Mr. Editor, the minister does not verify each investment one by one. However, the minister is responsible for ensuring that not a single zloty of public money is spent improperly – he continued.
