The European Commission has referred Poland to the European Court of Justice because, in the Commission's view, the Polish Act on Special Powers of the Treasury and their Exercise in Companies of Special Importance for Public Order or Public Security (and two implementing ordinances) is contrary to the principle of free movement of capital and freedom of establishment under the EC Treaty. The Act grants the State special rights - including a right of veto in respect of important management decisions - in thirteen Polish companies in the copper ore mining, media/audiovisual, railway infrastructure, electricity, gas and petroleum, motor spirits and diesel oil sectors.
