Sažetak
This article diagnoses the use of instruments supporting
entrepreneurship by the Podkarpackie Province
communes. The main research problem was formulated
as follows: Do the instruments of supporting
entrepreneurship used by self-government affect the
development of economic initiatives in the area of
the surveyed communes? We analyzed it in two areas.
The first one focuses on the present state, analyzing
the quality and directions of actions taken by commune
authorities in supporting economic initiatives
as well as their results. The second one attempts at
pointing the solutions conducive to enterprise development
and instruments ensuring their stimulation.
The results of the conducted analyses allowed us to
assess the effectiveness of the instruments supporting
entrepreneurship used by local government units.
The main conclusion derived from the research is that
the use of fiscal instruments does not constitute the
strongest factor in determining the location of economic
activity. The use of tax forms of support dependant
on the economic situation turns out to be
much less important than the use of solutions such as
improvement of infrastructure conditions, selection
of areas for investment, lease of commune facilities
for economic activities, creation of capital back-up
comprised of loan funds, as well as implementation
of organizational changes aiming at better efficiency
of the office.
