Żukowska:

We are submitting amendments to the draft changes to the regulations aimed at limiting the autocratic power of the Sejm Marshal, because we do not have full trust in PiS

- We are submitting the following amendments to the draft changes to the regulations, which aim to limit the autocratic power of the Sejm Marshal, because we do not have full trust in PiS and we believe that in such a situation, when voting and sittings are held remotely, we must have the possibility of greater consensus. Therefore, we are submitting an amendment to Article 198a, point 2, we want to change the wording so that the Sejm Presidium, by a qualified majority of votes, and not the Sejm Marshal, decides on conducting a Sejm sitting using electronic communication means, after consulting the Convention of Seniors - said Anna Maria Żukowska in the Sejm. - We are concerned about the decision that appears here and the phrasing of an epidemic threat or epidemic state. We want this possibility of remote operation to be introduced only and exclusively in the case of an epidemic state, not an epidemic threat - she continued.
