In the first voting block, the Sejm adopted:
- Amendment to the Act on trading in financial instruments
The purpose of the Act is to eliminate the need to obtain mediation of investment companies by entities that emit securities with a total value of up to EUR 1 million during the year. The need for amendment arose as a result of changes in EU regulations. The Polish Act appealed to the no longer existing EU regulations, which meant that such an exemption in practice lost its effectiveness.
- Amendment to the Act on investment funds
The new regulations are intended to repeal the provisions regarding the duties of the Depositor Bank. The repealed points impose on the bank, which is the depositary of the Investment Fund, the obligation to verify the compliance of the investment fund with law regulating the activities of investment funds or with the statute taking into account the interest of participants and the alternative depositary of the investment company
- Amendment to the Act on National Tax Administration and the Act on tax on goods and services
The new regulations provide that the controlled entrepreneur will be able to make a correction of the tax declaration after the end or during the customs and tax inspection. It will be able to partly take into account the irregularities found during the inspection – and not only as a whole, as it was before.
In addition, the entrepreneur will also be able to submit the so -called Primary declaration, i.e. the first, within 14 days of starting or completing the inspection. Until now, this raised legislative doubts.
- Amendment extending the deadline for submitting statements regarding the return to the surname
The regulation is to provide spouses who changed their name during the marriage and then divorced, a longer deadline for submitting a declaration of return to the name. The deadline will be extended from 3 to 12 months after the divorce decision becomes final.
