We are extremely pleased to inform that such an invitation was received by Janusz Cieślak – President of the European Business Club Poland.

The initiative to organize the Polish-British Belvedere Forum is of a non-government nature, however it is fully supported by the governments of Poland and Great Britain. As a matter of fact, the creation of the Polish-British Civil Society Forum is the aftermath of the agreements made by Prime Ministers of both countries in November 2016 in Great Britain. At that time the parties agreed that the annual collateral Forum will be a great chance to extend and deepen the dialogue of the societies of both countries. Moreover, it will be a significant fulfillment of the annual Polish-British governmental consultations.

Professor Witold Modzelewski was the guest of the EBC Poland.

On the 2nd of March 2017 upon the invitation of the President-Janusz Cieślak Professor Witold Modzelewski – President of the Tax Studies Institute was a guest of the European Business Club Poland. The theme of the meeting was the tax policy towards entrepreneurs in the context of the Constitution for Business.

When introducing the guest the President of the EBC Poland emphasized that Professor Modzelwski is a distinguished expert in the area of taxation and is the author of over 1000 publications in that area. As a lawyer he links theoretical knowledge with experience.

When speaking professor Witold Modzelewski warned against too much belief in digitalization which according to him is not a “wonderful cure” to solve all economic problems or those connected with the inappropriate functioning of the tax system. He emphasized that the government of every country should primarily act in favour of public good. He stated that currently the biggest problem of the developed countries is the procedure of VAT extortion as well as avoidance of paying due taxes by dishonest entrepreneurs. Statistically even 1/5 of invoices in the European Union are false which best shows the importance of the problem with which we have to deal. It creates a very uncomfortable situation in which beside the economic entities operating according to law and creating economic growth also operate other entities which do not produce anything, do not render any services and their only aim is to cause great loses to the State Treasury. The duty of the state apparatus is the ability to detect such damaging economic entities and their neutralization.

Professor W. Modzelewski has also drawn the attention to a very dangerous phenomenon which is the creation of bills or regulations that create a fake need for solutions or services rendered by a small group of entrepreneurs. It creates a very dangerous and damaging precedent in which certain entrepreneurs have to adjust to the market but others upon the implemented bills adjust it to their own needs. Such actions have nothing to do with rules of the free market but on the contrary they are their total negation.

At the end Professor W. Modzelewski answered the questions asked by the participating entrepreneurs at the meeting.

According to the tradition the meeting took place in the conference room of the Hotel – Restauracja Czarny Kot – My Warsaw Residence.

European Business Club Poland supports the Constitution for Business.

The European Business Club Poland in a very positive manner opinionates the proposals for change in assumptions made in the Vice Prime Minister’s (Mateusz Morawiecki) Constitution for Business. Any solutions that facilitate activities of Polish entrepreneurs are always welcomed and can count on our support. From the moment our Association was established we stated many times that various legal barriers and an array of unclear and sometimes contradicting legal provisions are an immense barrier in the development of the Polish economy. It appears that our voice has been heard.

Without a doubt The Constitution for Business is a long awaited  document by entrepreneurs. It is very lengthy therefore here we would like to draw your attention only to a few of its aspects.

With particular satisfaction we welcome the announcement to create a spokesman for entrepreneurs. This demand has been raised by the European Business Club Poland already in 2013 and was specified in the bill’s draft written by the lawyer Wojciech Błaszczak, who was then a member of the Board of the Association. Despite introducing the document to representatives of Parliamentary Clubs at that time it was only supported by one political party. Now it has a chance to come into force which we hope will happen.

 For entrepreneurs one of the most fundamental aspects is transparency of law and interpretation of legal provisions and therefore the stability of law. Stability of law is the first ally of an entrepreneur and allows for making key decisions both in current activities as well as in forming strategies and company development. Stability of law also brings measurable effects for entrepreneurs for instance by reducing costs for legal services and also costs of lengthy court proceedings.

Mentioning the famous so called “Wilczek Bill” according to which what is not prohibited is allowed we take as a step in the right direction. This rule is connected with the above mentioned stability of law. Similarly we look at the proposal to introduce the rule of “Institutions’ silent agreement” or interpreting unclear situations on favour of the entrepreneur, and not how it has been until now – exactly the opposite.

In an optimistic way we look at the proposal of penalties used by the Institutions which will be adequate to the wrongdoing. It definitely builds a sense of justice and creates good positive relationships between the state and entrepreneurs. We also hope that this will liquidate commonly occurring cases when for little wrongdoings (i.e. a mistake in the invoice in the amount of few groszy) a penalty was imposed which was many times higher than possible losses of the state treasury and disproportionally high to the mistake made.

It is also import to create a common committee of the parliament and entrepreneurs as a constant discussion forum between the ministries and representative of entrepreneurs. It will be responsible inter alia for giving opinions on legal acts important for economic activity and coming up to common solutions. The European Business Club Poland supports the suggestion of prof. Elżbieta Mączyńska – President of the Polish Economic Society to expand this committee by representatives of non-government institutions.

However, the most important from our point of view is the emphasis on building partnerships between the state and entrepreneurs based on mutual trust and “friendly neutrality”. Upon the assumptions made in the Constitution for Business one can draw conclusions that there is a change in perceiving entrepreneurs  – finally it was understood that they are a solid base for building wealth and development of Polish society.

The European Business Club Poland wishes the Vice Prime Minister – Mateusz Marawiecki determination and success in implementing the proposed changes as quickly as possible especially due to the fact that they are needed “for yesterday”. It has to be emphasized that the idea of the Constitution for Business is noble, however its realization in practical terms will be the most important i.e. the introduced drafts of legal acts deriving from the Constitution.

Afterwards the Ambassador Mr. Ajay Bisaria gave an extended presentation on the economic situation of his country and its position in the world as well as put it in the context of current co-operation between our countries. DSC_0036 The most important issue which has a significant impact on the development of bilateral co-operation are changes in law being implemented in India due to which bureaucratic barriers will be abolished. He indicated industrial sectors where the co-operation with Poland would have a special meaning i.e.: energy sector, communication technologies, food industry, health sector, chemical industry. He also tried to convince that India is a market for those entrepreneurs “hungry for success” as well as for those looking for professional development. He emphasized that his country is a perfect base for building new, more intensive economic relations or fast development of the ones already existing.

After the Ambassador’s speech a very interesting discussion took place that ended in individual talks of entrepreneurs with our guests. This will surely be helpful in making decisions about co-operation on the Indian market.
