New housing allowance for Prison Service officers

This law introduces a new monthly housing allowance for Prison Service officers, replacing the previous cash equivalent for lacking accommodation. Officers without assigned housing can apply for this benefit, the amount of which depends on their duty station's location. The changes are retroactive to July 1, 2025, and include budget spending limits.
Key points
Prison Service officers get a new housing allowance instead of the old cash equivalent for lacking a flat.
The allowance is paid upon application; its amount depends on a base rate and a location multiplier set by the minister.
Officers who previously received financial housing aid will have their allowance reduced by 1/120 of that aid monthly for 10 years.
The new rules apply retroactively from July 1, 2025, with back payments for eligible officers.
Total budget spending on this allowance is capped at over 4.4 billion PLN through 2035.
