In Brief; A zero for Ziobro's Rywin report?; Confidence vote

This would mean that the Sejm's vote in favor of Zbigniew Ziobro's report back in May is worthless. The decision was made thanks to the votes of the SLD and Self-Defense deputies, which came as a surprise even to Self-Defense leader Andrzej Lepper. The Sejm will vote on the report once again today. (Rzeczpospolita, p. A3) ... The SLD will support Marek Belka's government in the October 15 vote of confidence without any demand on government policy. SLD leader Krzysztof Janik admitted that there is frictions between the SLD and the government but this mainly concerns work in the Sejm commissions on bills proposed by the government.
