Minister Pełczyńska-Nałęcz: widow's pension costs 11bn PLN, proposes raising tax threshold instead

Poland's Minister of Funds Katarzyna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz has revealed that the widow's pension supplement costs 11 billion PLN and total pension top-ups reach 160 billion PLN a year. She is questioning whether further pension supplements funded by higher taxes on workers are the right approach, proposing instead to raise the second income tax threshold to ease the burden on those in employment.
