Minister of Funds and Regional Policy, Katarzyna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz from Poland 2050, announces fundamental changes in the Polish taxation system. In the face of the upcoming reconstruction of the government and intensive coalition negotiations, the Simon Holowna group presents a package of proposals aimed not only at expanding the state's gross but besides at stimulating pro-development investments and introducing greater fiscal justice. The main points are the introduction of a digital tax, taxes on extraordinary bank profits and cataster from the 3rd and subsequent housing. These possible changes can importantly affect the financial situation of Poles and key sectors of the economy as early as 2025.
Tax Revolution: Digital Giants, Banks and 3rd Apartment
Katarzyna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz, in an interview with money.pl, clearly defined the directions of fiscal reform. The first of the announced Danes is digital taxthat is to burden the biggest technology and advertising players. Its introduction aims not only to increase gross for the state budget, but besides to supply an alternate origin of backing for public media, thus relieving the state budget. This is simply a step towards fairer taxation of companies that make immense profits on the Polish market, frequently avoiding adequate burdens.
The second proposal is tax on extraordinary bank profits. In the context of advanced interest rates and evidence profits in the banking sector in fresh years, this tribute is intended to respond to social expectations of fairer burden sharing. This is to be a way of obtaining additional resources that could be utilized for social or investment purposes, while signaling that the State expects to participate in the costs of crises from those who profit from them.
The most controversial and at the same time having the top impact on individual citizens is the proposal Cataster from 3rd and subsequent apartment. The aim of this taxation is to combat speculation in the real property marketplace and to improve the availability of housing for people who request them to live in. It will primarily affect investors with real property portfolios, not average Poles with 1 or 2 dwellings. This is expected to be a signal that having multiple properties for investment purposes will entail more burden, which may affect rental and acquisition prices.
The conflict for Influences in Government: What will Poland gain 2050?
Tax proposals are part of the broader strategy of Poland 2050, which demands greater impact and partnership treatment within the governing coalition. Katarzyna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz emphasizes that Simon Holownia's group is ready for compromises, but expects circumstantial competences in return. "We give the marshal's chair, we get the deputy marshal and the deputy prime minister. This is precisely what the Left has today,” the minister points out in an interview with money.pl. Poland 2050 gives its first consent to resigning from the supervision of the energy area, but in return expects action in another key areas specified as housing and public finance reform.
In the framework of these negotiations, Pełczyńska-Nałęcz besides reserves that there is no agreement to reduce the competence of its Ministry of Funds and Regional Policy. It demands that the National Property Resource be excluded from its ministry's curatela, which is designed to improve resource management and accelerate housing policy implementation. This shows how crucial real tools are for Poland 2050 to implement their programme.
New Investment Money: CPK and KPO
Minister Pełczyńska-Nałęcz besides presented innovative ideas for financing large infrastructure projects specified as the Central Communication Port (CPK). alternatively of relying solely on budgetary resources, it proposes introducing CPKs to the stock exchange or issuing dedicated bonds. This opens the way for dispersed investors to co-finance strategical projects, drawing from abroad patterns, specified as the Finnish model, where state-owned companies co-finance atomic power plants in exchange for long-term energy supplies. "This is simply a joint investment in something that will then benefit dispersed investors," he argues.
In addition, in the planned revision of the National Recovery Plan (KPO), Poland 2050 wants to shift funds to investments that are more appropriate to local needs. This is about financing key projects for agrarian and urban municipalities, specified as the construction and modernisation of water and sewage networks. This applicable approach is intended to guarantee that EU funds go where they are most needed and bring real benefits to local communities.
Public Media improvement and State Finance
Public media backing is another precedence of Poland 2050. Katarzyna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz emphasises that "if something is to be public and for public money, it must be truly public". Consequently, the group proposes that TVP's backing be withdrawn straight from the state budget. Instead, money for public media would come from a peculiar fund created from taxes on digital giants and advertising. "Poland 2050 knows how to make public tv not just on budget money", the minister says, which is to increase media independency from current policies.
In the context of the general financial situation of the State, Pełczyńska-Nałęcz calms down that Poland will not become a net payer in the immediate budgetary position of the European Union. "It can be said that we will not be a net contributor in the 2028-2034 perspective", he declares, dispelling concerns about future financial burdens on EU membership.
Conclusions: The proposals of Katarzyna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz and Poland 2050 are a comprehensive improvement plan, which aims not only to increase budget revenues, but besides to make a more equitable and effective financial strategy in Poland. The introduction of a digital tax, bank tributes and catasters from the 3rd apartment, combined with fresh strategies for financing investments and improvement of public media, could bring crucial changes for the Polish economy and society. Their actual implementation will depend on further negotiations within the governing coalition, but they are already a clear signal of the direction in which Poland 2050 wants to conduct fiscal policy in the coming years.
