Messner, who served as prime minister from 1985 to 1988 and is now president of the Association of Accountants in Poland (SKwP), told Accountancy Age that 'in every economy red tape is increasing'.
Professor Messner was in London to sign an agreement with ACCA Global, which will result in training members of the Polish body.
Messner said that local governments seemed to be better prepared for accession than the central govern-ment, because they are more used to dealing with Brussels.

The "conservative-bureaucratic" reform, actually its "second phase" proclaimed by the Zbigniew Messner government installed in office still in the fall of 1985 was yielding no effects.
On September 19 the Messner government submitted its resignation (in part due to a barrage of union fire from the OPZZ side), and on September 27 the post of Prime Minister was entrusted to Mieczyslaw F. Rakowski, perceived as champion of reforms.
A sub- (or super-) version of this hypothesis is the opinion that the same maneuvre was carried out in the entire Soviet bloc and was masterminded from the very center.

During 1988 the nation's shipyards, coalmines, ports, and steelworks were paralyzed by a wave of Solidarity-led strikes for higher wages to offset the effect of recent price rises.
With its economic strategy in tatters, the government of prime minister Zbigniew Messner resigned, being replaced in December 1988 by a new administration headed by the reformist communist Mieczyslaw F Rakowski, and the PUWP's politburo was infused with a new clutch of technocrats.
After six weeks of PUWP-Solidarity -church negotiations, a historic accord was reached in April 1989 under which Solidarity was relegalized, the formation of opposition political associations tolerated, legal rights conferred on the Catholic church, the state's media monopoly lifted, and a new `socialist pluralist´ constitution drafted.

Rakowski's hostility dated back to his abrasive confrontations with Solidarity in 1981, when he served as General Wojciech Jaruzelski's "contact man" with Solidarity and opposition circles in general.
In September 1988 he was named chairman of the Council of Ministers and immediately launched a two-pronged policy: to put teeth into the program of economic renewal, badly botched by his predecessor, Zbigniew Messner, and to contain the growing power of the opposition.1
Public anger was heightened in late October when the Rakowski government announced its plan to close the Lenin Shipyard in Gdansk, birthplace of Solidarity.
