At 11:00 AM, the Sejm's health committee will consider and provide an opinion on the Civic Coalition's (KO) motion for a vote of no confidence against the Minister of Health, Łukasz Szumowski. It is currently unknown when the Sejm will address the motion from the largest opposition party.

At 3:00 PM, the Sejm will resume its session. The only planned item is a 2.5-hour voting block, during which Senate amendments to the act on special rules for organizing general presidential elections called in 2020, with the possibility of postal voting, will be considered. After the aforementioned act is published in the Journal of Laws, the Marshal of the Sejm will be able to call the presidential elections.

President Andrzej Duda will visit the Mazovian Voivodeship. At 12:30 PM, PAD will participate in the announcement of the "My Water" program inauguration. Further statements from the president are planned for 2:10 PM in Tyszki Nadbory and 3:00 PM in Troszyn.
