Enterprise and Technology Minister Jadwiga Emilewicz was speaking after the country’s Central Statistical Office (GUS) said earlier in the day that the Polish economy grew 5.1 percent in the third quarter of this year.

Emilewicz added that Poland had stable growth fundamentals, with domestic consumption remaining high and investment figures encouraging.

The Polish economy grew 5.1 percent in the second quarter.

The Central Statistical Office in mid-November revised upward its estimate of Polish GDP growth in the first quarter from 5.2 percent to 5.3 percent.
