Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk dismisses Kaczyński's proposed hospital commission

Jarosław Kaczyński, leader of the Law and Justice (PiS) party, has suggested creating a Public Trust Commission to investigate alleged irregularities at Warsaw's South Hospital. He claims the commission would be independent and apolitical.

Prime Minister Donald Tusk called the proposal an "oxymoron," emphasizing that existing investigations by prosecutors are already underway. Tusk pledged a thorough, non‑political inquiry, noted the involvement of the Justice Ministry, and warned against turning the issue into a political game. The debate revives tensions over hospital oversight that have previously contributed to political crises in Poland.
