New Polish judicial law does not meet all requirements to unlock funds, says EU Commission chief
A recently passed law reforming Poland’s discipliunary regime for judges – designed to resolve a rule-of-law dispute with Brussels and unlock billions in frozen EU funds – does not meet all of the European Commission’s requirements, says its president, Ursula von der Leyen.
....
von der Leyen’s remarks confirmed comments the previous day by her vice president, Věra Jourová, who said that Poland’s new law “does not fulful the milestones for the recovery plan”.
“Poland will have to reflect on the conditions, and if they will not have a sufficient response in the legally binding rules for the Polish judiciary, which will correspond with the milestones, we will not pay the money,” Jourová added.
Her remarks were immediately condemned by Beata Szydło – a former Polish prime minister and now ruling party MEP – who said they showed that “some members of the European Commission are looking for ways to block funds for Poland at all costs”.
