Next Thursday, the Sejm will consider the expansion of the 500+ program to include the first child – this is one of the elements of Kaczyński's "fifth" package of proposals. As we reported on 300POLITYCE, the amendment is to be voted on at an express pace, within a few hours. Today, two meetings of the Sejm's Committee on Social Policy and Family have been convened, which will allow for such rapid progress.

The first reading will take place in the plenary hall at 10:00 AM, after which the bill will be sent to the aforementioned committee, which will convene at 1:00 PM. The second reading is scheduled for 3:45 PM, followed by a committee meeting to consider amendments proposed during it – at 5:30 PM. At the end of the day, between 6:15 PM and 8:15 PM, a block of votes will be held, during which the bill will be adopted.
