Donald Tusk met with voters in Krakow on Wednesday afternoon. The chairman of the Civic Platform persuaded people to vote for the Civic Coalition and also talked about the work and intentions of the government he leads.
– Today, here in Krakow, I want to tell good news to all mothers – future mothers, but also those who have the smallest babies. We have just finished work on the so-called grandma’s. In a few days, at the next government meeting, we will adopt this project, he said.
Grandma’s, i.e. PLN 1,500. Donald Tusk announces payments in 2024
– Of course, we have to give ourselves some time, because, as we know, it is a law – he said. – Today we have made assumptions, the government will adopt the bill, it must be submitted to the Sejm, but today I think I can say yes one hundred percent, maybe 99, just in case – I am sure that this year it will be the first grandmother’s – we call it officially and probably more accurately “Active parent” – will be paid, I think just after the holidays – said Tusk.
– Polish parents – mainly mothers, of course – will be able to remain active a few months after the birth of the child, i.e. every mother who wants to return to work sooner, i.e. after a fully paid one-year maternity leave, will be able to return to work, because will receive the promised PLN 1,500 from the state to pay for a nanny, grandmother, sister, friend, and if a nursery is involved, then to pay for the nursery – continued the head of government.
