The continuation of Sejm (Polish Parliament) sessions is an event that will be closely watched this week. While the current agenda only includes the election of parliamentary committee members, it is conceivable that the ruling majority might decide to submit draft resolutions concerning Constitutional Tribunal judges or the abortion ruling.

This week also brings changes to the head of the Chancellery of the Sejm – a committee will convene on this matter, alongside the visit of the President of Finland and President Duda's participation in the Visegrad Group summit. Furthermore, the term of the head of the KNF (Financial Supervision Authority) concludes in the coming days, and the Constitutional Tribunal will also address a motion.
