European Union law requires all member countries to observe daylight saving time by moving clocks forward by an hour on the last Sunday of March and back by an hour on the last Sunday of October.
The European Parliament in 2019 voted in favor of abandoning the practice of moving clocks back and forward by an hour.
EU lawmakers decided they wanted the time changes scrapped, leaving it up to national governments to choose whether to stay on permanent summer or winter time.
But before the final decisions are made, the issue still needs to be dealt with by member states, Poland's PAP news agency has reported.
Meanwhile, 78.3 percent of Poles are against moving clocks forward in spring and then back again in the autumn, according to a study cited by the Polish state news agency.
More than 74 percent of respondents opt for permanent summer time, while the remainder say they prefer to stick with winter time, the study by pollster CBOS found in March 2019.
Only 14.2 percent of Poles are in favor of retaining the twice-a-year time shift, according to the study, PAP reported.
Poland has been part of the European Union since 2004.
