New commission will seek out 'truth and justice'

This 'mega-commission' will be composed of eight members of parliament, representing all parliamentary clubs, as well as seven independent judges. Members of the commission will be investigating every case that poses credibility questions that took place after 1987. "The priorities should be the economic bills from 1988 and 1989 introduced by the government of Mieczyslaw F. Rakowski," said Szymon Girzynski from PiS. The commission will have the right to study all secret documents, and turn to the prosecutor to begin an independent investigation. The PiS club hopes to submit the bill to the Sejm for voting sometime soon, and establish the commission after the summer holidays. (Rzeczpospolita, p. A3) A.K.
