Poland's Ministry of Justice said the country placed 32nd in the latest World Justice Project Rule of Law Index. Poland scored 0.67 on a scale from 0 to 1. The index covers 143 countries and jurisdictions. The ministry said Poland's score has risen by 4.22 per cent since 2023, the largest improvement recorded by any country surveyed in that period. The strongest gains were in constraints on government power and independent oversight, which rose by more than 16 per cent, in the accessibility of the justice system in civil cases, and in equal treatment and protection against discrimination. Justice Minister Waldemar Zurek presented the figures.
