Seaports are a natural link between the land and sea transportation. Their development is a prerequisite in order to, among others, provide the capacity to trans-ship the growing number of goods. Sea transportation covers altogether 75 percent of the European external trade and 37 percent of the internal trade within the European union. In Poland, there are 33 active seaports, out of which six are big ports, while 27 are medium-sized and small seaports. Over the last years, however, only big ports observe a significant growth in the volume of the goods trans-shipped there, while the role of medium-sized and small ports has been diminishing. That is why the Supreme Audit Office took a decision to examine whether and how the maritime administration, the governors of regions and the entities that manage sea ports implemented the measures set forth in seaports development plans and strategies. In their article, the authors present the details of the audit findings.
