July meeting
Let us remind that Prime Minister's chief of law Jan Grabieć reported that PKW received extended material from the government concerning irregularities in the backing of the election run by PiS. Onet described the full case, stating that these materials concern, among others, the Justice Fund and the Forest Fund, which are connected with Sovereign Poland.
Politicians of this formation competed with the letter of the PiS, which could have consequences for the Kaczyński party. The materials besides included information on expenditure from the Ministry of Digital Affairs. If the study was rejected, the organization could have lost up to 75% of the grants and subsidies provided for by the state budget. This is simply a large deal due to the fact that the subsidy itself is nearly 26 million.
As Mr Kalisz stressed at the beginning of the committee's work:
These writings are a lot. 1 of the rooms is swamped. The PCW shall not be active in any political debate. We act on the basis of the electoral code and constitution. We're intimidated, 1 of the journalists, the president of the Law and Justice is scaring us.
On 31 July, the head of PKW, Sylwester Marciniak, informed that the next gathering of the State Election Commission would take place on 29 August. The Commission discussed the financial statements of Law and Justice for respective hours and then decided to address the Government Legislative Centre and NASK to clarify the doubts.
Marciniak explained that after receiving a answer from these institutions, the PiS financial typical would be able to present his position. Ryszard Kalisz, a PKW member, mentioned that before the gathering they had received fresh materials from KPRM, as well as papers from NIK and the prosecution.
Marciniak's statement. Is it possible to postpone?
Sylvester Marciniak made a message today. He announced that the day would be very intense. He pointed out that according to the Electoral Code, the PCW should examine the financial statements within six months of their submission. He added that political parties, electoral committees, associations and foundations have 30 days to declare written objections since the announcement of the communication, which was published in late February 2024. They did not rise any objections within the prescribed time limit.
Marciniak noted that the committee received a immense number of letters from various institutions, including ministries, Members and Euro MPs, frequently counting respective twelve pages, without a formal proposal from the PKW. He admitted that the fresh writings flow practically all day, even at night.
The president of the PCC besides explained that he would not present a position on the individual papers before the committee took its decision. He stressed that the activities of the PCW afraid the Committee on Law and Justice and that the perfect situation would be 1 where the case would be resolved both legally and fairly. He pointed out that there was a hazard that the ruling could be fair but illegal or even unfair. Marciniak expressed hope that the PKW members were aware of the impact of their decisions on the state of democracy in Poland.
When asked about the anticipation of another postponement of the decision, Marciniak stated that any specified postponement causes participants in political life to submit additional writings, films or photographs, which can last forever. He expressed his belief that a decision had to be made, and hoped that the gathering would be shorter than the erstwhile 1 and that the decision would be taken within a fewer hours.
