Michał Olech

Friday marks the final day of the Sejm's sitting. At 9:00 AM, the second reading of the government's draft amendment to certain acts concerning the verification of family benefits eligibility for foreigners and the conditions for assisting Ukrainian citizens due to the armed conflict in that country will take place, and at 10:30 AM, the government's draft bill on a heating voucher.

In practice, this involves extending the maximum electricity price mechanism for households at 500 PLN/MWh until the end of the year. The proposal also introduces the aforementioned heating voucher. The first bill, in turn, concerns linking the right to the 800+ benefit for non-EU foreigners with their activity in the labor market. The coalition aims to pass these bills within two days, with voting scheduled during the evening block.

At 4:30 PM, the Sejm will consider the Council of Ministers' request for Parliament to consent to extending the temporary restriction on the right to apply for international protection at the state border with Belarus.

At 8:00 PM, the aforementioned voting block will commence, lasting until 9:15 PM, during which the appointment of the President of the Supreme Audit Office (NIK) will also occur, along with the election of the chairperson of the State Commission for Preventing Sexual Exploitation of Minors Under 15, and an attempt to elect judges to the Constitutional Tribunal (TK).

At 10:30 AM, a press conference will be held in the Sejm by Mariusz Błaszczak, head of the PiS parliamentary club, and Marcin Ociepa.

Prime Minister Donald Tusk will visit Zakłady Metalowe Dezamet S.A. (Dezamet Metal Works) in Nowa Dęba. A statement to the media is scheduled for approximately 11:20 AM.
