Poland adopted an economic stabilisation and development package for 2009-2010
valued at 24 billion euros ($30 billion) to help weather the global financial
crisis, Prime Minister Donald Tusk said.
At the same time, Polish Finance Minister Jan Rostowski said his department was
lowering its economic growth forecast for 2009 to 3.7 percent,  compared with
the previous outlook of 4.8 percent.
"It is a stabilisation and development programme, because Poland is in the
situation of a country that is still developing," Tusk said.
