Changes to Olympic and Paralympic athlete rewards

The act changes the rules for paying scholarships and bonuses to Polish athletes and their coaches for participating in the 2024 Paris Olympic and Paralympic Games. Award amounts will now be tied to the minimum wage rather than a fixed amount of 2300 PLN.
Key points
Medalists from the Paris 2024 Games will receive bonuses calculated from the minimum wage, potentially higher than the previous 2300 PLN.
The Minister of Sport will set exact bonus rates based on podium places and the significance of achievements.
Over 232 million PLN from the state budget is allocated for sports bonuses and scholarships from 2024 to 2033.
If funds run low, the Minister can reduce payments to athletes.
