One year after declaring 2025 the “year of breakthrough,” Poland’s government reviews deregulation progress and sets priorities for 2026.
Government Reviews Deregulation Progress
Exactly one year after announcing 2025 as the “year of breakthrough” at the Warsaw Stock Exchange, the government is summarizing the effects of its regulatory overhaul. This comprehensive review marks a significant milestone in the country’s deregulation efforts.
The government’s “big cleanup” in regulations has been ongoing, with officials now assessing both the achievements and areas needing further attention.
Deregulation 2.0: What’s Been Accomplished
Minister Berek has revealed details of the Deregulation 2.0 initiative, outlining what has actually been implemented and what remains pending. The deregulatory balance of changes shows progress across multiple sectors.
As officials note, “the sum of small things makes a difference” in regulatory reform, indicating that cumulative changes, even if incremental, are producing tangible results for businesses and citizens.
Priorities for 2026
Following this review, the government has indicated its priorities for the coming year 2026. These will focus on continuing the deregulation momentum while addressing areas where progress has been slower.
The specific priorities will likely build upon the foundation established during the first year of the “year of breakthrough,” with an emphasis on practical implementation and measurable outcomes.
