Global news- Poland Government will continue on road of mining sector reform - PM
MITRA-MANDAL
04.12.2016
During Miner’s Day ceremonies in the city of Jaworzno on Sunday, Polish Prime Minister Beata Szydlo declared that her government would continue on "the road of reform and change in the mining industry."
Speaking at the Sobieski mine operated by Poland’s Tauron energy group, Szydlo underlined that "the Polish economy will remain based on Polish coal" and that the goal of reforms undertaken by her government in the mining industry is to ensure "development and modernisation based on the latest technologies."
She also remarked that the government policies are taking the most flak "from those who did not do anything for the mining industry during the previous eight years; those who did not carry out any changes, those who were not investing, even though they had in their hands all the tools with which to save the Polish mining industry."
Szydlo said government efforts are beginning to produce results, "but this is just the beginning of a road that requires more work for many months before the mining sector becomes modern, development-oriented and safe."
"We have a plan, we have a schedule, and we are determined to press ahead with stabilisation in the mining sector," she said.
On Sunday morning, before visiting Jaworzno, Szydlo took part in a Miner’s Day parade and attended a special Catholic Mass in her hometown of Brzeszcze. (PAP)
