Only 35 MPs from the Law and Justice (PiS) party – including representatives of Solidary Poland – voted to reject the so-called 'Five for Animals' bill in its first reading. Another 15 MPs – some representatives from Agreement – abstained. In total, only 63 MPs voted for rejection, with 339 against and 18 abstaining.

Now, the proposal – along with the Civic Coalition's draft – will be sent to the agriculture committee, which must consider the bills promptly, as the second reading is scheduled for tomorrow at 13:00. In practice, this means the Sejm will likely vote on the bill during tomorrow evening's session.
