Another Day of the Sejm Session

Wednesday is also the second day of the Sejm session. Debates will resume at 9:00 AM.

The MPs will address, among other things, a government bill concerning the simplification of administrative procedures. This involves extending the application of the so-called tacit consent in official matters.

The agenda also includes the second reading of a government bill amending the Code of Criminal Procedure. This aims to align Polish regulations with EU law concerning the European Arrest Warrant, enabling the swift extradition of individuals between states.

- The most important issue lies elsewhere. That by the end of June, in principle by July 1st, these regulations should come into force, because if they do not, cryptocurrency market companies operating in Poland with existing licenses will not be able to function. The honest ones, operating legitimately, who comply with the law. So we have very little time, we have 1.5 months to finally pass a law that Mr. President will sign. So, dear government, get to work - stated Rafał Leśkiewicz in "Sygnały dnia" on PR1.

- First and foremost, we have e-registration, which has freed up appointment slots. Starting July 1st, more specializations will be included where you can register in this convenient way. We currently have a bill on broadly defined e-health in the legislative process. Therefore, I hope it will be accepted, and we will be able to propose a shortened diagnostic pathway through e-consultations. So, all of this will certainly improve the work of both healthcare providers and patient accessibility. However, of course, many things need sorting out; not everything happens at once, but I am pleased that we are at least starting to organize the hematology network - stated Jolanta Sobierańska-Grenda in an interview with Marcin Fijołek on Polsat News's "Graffiti".
 

- Today we already have PLN 220 billion, including what's allocated to the National Bank of Poland. Right now, no, we estimate that we will be short by about PLN 15-16 billion. This is a very large sum. First and foremost, I would like us to have the feeling that the money we allocate to the public healthcare system is spent rationally, properly, and with the patient in mind, whereas I think I will always advocate for more money for the healthcare system. We know that various solutions are appearing on the table - stated Jolanta Sobierańska-Grenda in "Graffiti" on Polsat News.

- Health contributions, of course, a new tax that could be introduced. I am primarily in favor of paying health contributions on a solidarity basis today, so I think that these privileged groups, who today pay this contribution at a much lower level, also require serious discussion. Among others, [I am thinking of farmers], but this is a broader discussion - she continued.

- Many things are happening, including funds from the KPO, which I think will soon be available for all patients. I travel the country and see how people are rejoicing, both individuals and institutions, that 18 billion is already bringing real benefits, the purchase of equipment, investments, a total of 36 billion - stated Jolanta Sobierańska-Grenda in "Graffiti" on Polsat News.

- What absolutely should happen, and I don’t quite understand why it’s stalled in the Sejm and not landing on the President’s desk, are civil partnerships. We are unequivocally in favor of civil partnerships here. This is a majority solution, people definitely want it - stated Katarzyna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz on PR3.

- The Poland 2050 project [regarding cryptocurrencies] is the only one with a chance to become law. Why? Because it is not dogmatic, it doesn't say either everything must be our way, or nothing, or everything must be the other way, the presidential way or the government way. Instead, it incorporates the most important government solutions, and aspects crucial to the president have been included following discussions with him - stated Katarzyna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz on PR3.

- We have put forward a bill, which has passed its first reading and initial vote in the Sejm, and this bill gives people, apartment owners, the right to decide whether they have such a pato-hotel next door or apartments rented out by the hour - stated Katarzyna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz on PR3.

- It's terrible, living in such conditions, and this bill is unfortunately being blocked, and I will say it openly, it is being blocked by our coalition partners, by all of them, I believe. So I am addressing all our coalition partners, including particularly Lewica, to state their position, whether they agree with what people want, whether apartment owners should be able to decide if they have a hotel next door or a brothel next door, forgive my words, but the gravity of this situation must be conveyed - she continued.

- It seems to me, and I don’t think there will be any exaggeration in this, that Poles have never been so proud of who they are, what they have achieved, where they live. Everywhere I go in the world, due to my office, as you can imagine, I have to travel a lot - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk during Impact’26.

- Everywhere there I meet Poles who are proud, happy; they are often tourists in the most exotic places in the world. Recently, I was in Seoul, in Tokyo, we walked the streets and time and again we encountered groups of Polish tourists who, even far from their homeland, spoke with such pride and satisfaction about how they received compliments and saw depictions that told them Poland is truly an absolutely exceptional place when it comes to the scale of its success - he continued.

- We are the fastest-growing country in Europe. We are the most ambitious nation in Europe. We achieved this success thanks to our own entrepreneurship, courage, creativity, and you know, thanks to something that is unique today – we believed when we started this journey, and we still believe today that these old, eternal foundations of our civilization, European, Western civilization – freedom, human rights, human dignity, entrepreneurship, competition – yes, it sounds archaic, but they are still as important as they were when our civilization was born - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk during Impact’26.

- This confrontation will never end. I would very much like it if, here in Poznań too, all those who will talk about technological, economic, and civilizational challenges, about the new geopolitics, never lose faith that the power of doing good in politics is not a fairy tale for the naive. And that we may once again understand that good cannot be and does not have to be powerless, that truth does not have to lose to lies. Honesty does not have to lose to corruption - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk during Impact'26.

- In the last few dozen months, I have also heard from many seemingly wise people, certainly important ones, that Ukraine has no chance in the war with Russia, that there can only be one winner, because of the potential - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk during Impact’26.

- This Ukrainian lesson shows another, very important thing: where solidarity between people is born, as it was in Poland when we welcomed hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian refugees in a few days, but also solidarity between nations that managed to awaken to help Ukraine, it is a miracle similar to the birth of Solidarity, like the construction of modern states where it seemed nothing sensible could arise, I am talking about Central and Eastern Europe, it is a miracle similar to the victories of freedom and democracy in places that seemed destined for authoritarianism - he continued.

- This means that no evil trends, no evil forces will be able to defeat people of good will, because I always repeat this, there are more people of good will in Poland, in Europe, and in the world - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk during Impact’26.

- The CPN package will be extended. The package will be valid until the end of May, which is a guarantee that more funds will remain in the pockets of Polish women and men, drivers. These funds are, of course, absolutely crucial to keeping inflation in check, ensuring appropriate economic growth, and allowing us to continue saying that today Poland is safe in terms of energy supply, and also when it comes to acceptable fuel prices - stated Miłosz Motyka at a press briefing in the Sejm.

- Every political formation in the modern world needs resources. By the end of this year, the lack of payments from the state, to which we are entitled, and which have been approved by the National Electoral Commission (PKW) as well as by the courts, has already reached 46 million PLN. These are our shortfalls, and therefore I am forced to ask you once again for donations, even small ones. The aim is for as many people as possible to contribute - stated Jarosław Kaczyński at a press conference.

- We don't know this yet; the Sejm is still processing it, followed by Senate work. There were 15 amendments from the President, meaning they stemmed from the presidential bill. One important amendment was adopted, concerning the publication of reports, which is crucial primarily for consumers, but also for crypto-asset market entrepreneurs. However, 14 were rejected. This is very bad news - stated Zbigniew Bogucki in a conversation with journalists in the Sejm.

- The Minister of Health claims that #PeopleAreHappy. But what's the reality? - Przemysław Czarnek wrote on social media,

- According to the Polish Constitution, marriage is a union between a woman and a man. Regulations, just like statutes, must be in accordance with the Constitution. If someone wants to change the definition of civil marriage by way of a regulation, they have a clear path: change the Constitution, and then pass an appropriate law - Krzysztof Bosak wrote on social media.

- The claim by the CJEU that the EU's freedom of movement implies an obligation to recognize so-called "homosexual marriages" is complete nonsense with no basis whatsoever in the EU treaties or in elementary logic. Poland should simply ignore this ruling - emphasized the Deputy Marshal of the Sejm.

- Prime Minister Tusk should focus on the deteriorating situation in healthcare or on building a nuclear power plant, rather than once again playing out the oldest diversionary tactic in Polish politics - he added.

To rozporządzenie będzie niewątpliwie fascynującą lekturą z gatunku prawnej fantastyki.

Krótko o awanturze o transkrypcje:
- Zgodnie z polską Konstytucją małżeństwo to związek kobiety i mężczyzny.

- As you know, I am a strong advocate for expanding the B9 format to include Scandinavian countries, so I am particularly pleased to participate in the ongoing summit, in today's summit of leaders from Nordic countries: Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, and Iceland. This has definitely broadened our security perspective - stated President Karol Nawrocki at a press conference in Bucharest.

- It is difficult to be surprised, because Russia is and will remain the most serious long-term and direct threat to the security of the alliance's states. Russia's aggression against Ukraine is not an isolated conflict; it is a direct challenge to the entire Euro-Atlantic security order, and we are aware of this. The Kremlin strives to rebuild spheres of influence, weaken NATO's cohesion practically every week or month, and undermine the sovereignty and democracy of the states in our region - stated President Karol Nawrocki at a press conference in Bucharest.

- All three of us agreed that there is no NATO without the USA. This is supported not only by statistics but also by military capabilities, armed forces, financial potentials, the financial potential of the USA, and intelligence capabilities. This was echoed in almost every voice during our discussion today: NATO is built on strong transatlantic relations with a strong partnership with the USA - stated President Karol Nawrocki at a press conference in Bucharest.

- Unanimously, with no dissenting votes, we decided that the next Bucharest Nine summit will be held in Poland, in Warsaw - stated President Karol Nawrocki at a press conference in Bucharest.

- If President Trump makes the decision to move troops from Germany, then Poland is obviously ready, and I think it is in the interest of all of Europe, and also NATO, that American soldiers, who are a co-guarantee of security in Europe, remain. If such a decision is made regarding the soldiers stationed in Germany, then Poland, as well as other countries on NATO's eastern flank, are certainly ready to accept these soldiers, but there was no formal discussion of this today - stated President Karol Nawrocki at a press conference in Bucharest.

- This is probably a problem that perhaps we shouldn't burden our foreign guests with, but it's also a worry that presidents of other countries likely know too: that while we are discussing truly serious matters, namely the security of the entire eastern flank of NATO, the alliance, while we are debating in the Bucharest Nine forum, while we are building transatlantic relations and relations with the USA based on truly serious issues, issues I discussed with President Trump about not reducing the number of American soldiers in Poland, which President Trump delivered on, and about Poland being part of the G20 group, also President Trump, who is fulfilling his allied sympathies, commitments, and support for Poland and all of Central and Eastern Europe in this regard - stated President Karol Nawrocki at a press conference in Bucharest.

- He also accomplished this, or the release of Andrzej Poczobut from the Belarusian regime, while truly serious, fundamental things for our security and for Polish women and men, and for our region are happening, others are dealing with a visa for a private individual who left after filling out a form and found himself in the USA. Despite great respect for the journalist and the question, I consider this to be a matter truly pertaining to private life and the filling out of a visa form by a former Minister of Justice - he continued.

- I cannot imagine this somehow affecting Polish-American relations, because both I and President Trump are serious leaders of our countries and we know what is important. Military and security matters are important, the G20 group, 300 years of transatlantic Polish and American relations concerning values, not a visa and the departure of a person who could not expect a fair trial in Poland - stated President Karol Nawrocki at a press conference in Bucharest.

- I hope that no one in Poland is considering introducing this into official Polish-American relations, because that would be unserious and irresponsible - stated President Karol Nawrocki at a press conference in Bucharest.

- We have nothing official, and it was similar before when we approached the Hungarian government. Today, we are verifying Zbigniew Ziobro's whereabouts through multiple channels. On one hand, the investigation team has contacted the US Embassy to confirm where Mr. Ziobro is, under what conditions he is staying there, and with what documentation. The prosecutor's office has also contacted the Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This has not yet been confirmed - stated Waldemar Żurek in an interview with Katarzyna Kolenda-Zaleska on TVN24's "Fakty po faktach" (Facts After Facts).

- In reality, we only have a new Minister of Justice in Hungary from today, so Ziobro took advantage of such a window when a change of power is occurring. On one hand, we see the Prime Minister of Hungary, who is already taking the oath of office, but the ministers have not yet formally assumed their duties - stated Waldemar Żurek on TVN24's "Fakty po faktach" (Facts After Facts).

- Today, I wrote another letter to the minister, asking her to indicate where Ziobro and Romanowski are and on what grounds they left Hungary - stated Waldemar Żurek on TVN24's "Fakty po faktach" (Facts After Facts).

- We will try by all means to determine where Mr. Romanowski is, because Ziobro, as we know, is in the USA. But we will also engage in legal battle. I have already instructed and the prosecutor's office is working on an extradition request, we have a suitable agreement with the USA - stated Waldemar Żurek on TVN24's "Fakty po faktach" (Facts After Facts).

- This Geneva travel document allows for departure. I know he has already been summoned, and besides, the document itself doesn't allow it; he must have had some kind of US approval in the form of some kind of entry visa. We are speculating today that because he became a correspondent for one of the television stations, that's precisely what enabled his escape - stated Waldemar Żurek on TVN24's „Fakty po faktach” (Facts After Facts).

- I think the public in the USA should also be aware of the charges being brought against Ziobro. If Americans are truly extending a protective umbrella over someone facing criminal charges for financial malversations, then in the USA, defrauding public funds is indeed treated as a serious crime. I don't know how the public in the USA will react if they truly learn who Ziobro is, what charges he faces, and why Americans let him into their country - stated Waldemar Żurek on TVN24's "Fakty po faktach" (Facts After Facts).

- In my opinion, we saw interference in the Polish elections when, at the last moment, just before the Polish elections, the leader of an ally supported one of the sides in the ongoing electoral race. This was previously unacceptable in good political customs, but now it is happening - stated Waldemar Żurek in TVN24's "Fakty po faktach" (Facts after Facts).
