Description
New management is to restructure the Ministry of Economy. Ministry's General Director Mirosława Boryczka claims that changes have to be done due to 'different way of thinking about the Ministry and its part in development of Polish economy after accession'. Turnaround will result in cutting the number of departments from 29 to 27. Major restructuring is to be carried in one of the mostly populous departments - Department of Energetic Safety. Additionally, the management plans to create new department of economic regulations and a department of economy development that will strategically aid the Ministry of Economy.
