Why It Matters
Radosław Piesiewicz, president of the Polish Olympic Committee, was temporarily arrested in connection with the ongoing investigation. His term of office is to be completed by vice-president Marian Kmita. The government is considering unblocking funds from State Treasury companies for the Polish Olympic Committee, which may have been blocked due to its legal situation.
The District Court in Katowice upheld the decision to apply provisional arrest to Radosław Piesiewicz, head of the Polish Olympic Committee. Piesiewicz's term of office will be completed by one of the organization's vice presidents, Marian Kmita. Will the government therefore unlock money from State Treasury companies for the Polish Olympic Committee?
The conversation will also include the issue of short-term rental, which is managed by Deputy Minister Raś. The government adopted an amendment that restores the possibility of limiting or even prohibiting short-term rentals by local governments and housing communities. Will it be possible to create zones in Warsaw, Kraków, Gdańsk or Sopot in which daily rentals will be completely banned? Who will decide on the number of licenses? And can the owner of a legally purchased apartment be deprived of the ability to rent it out by decision of neighbors or the local government?
