Resignation of Peasant Party deputy leader accepted by Party Executive

The Supreme Executive Committee (NKW) of the Polish Peasants Party (PSL) has accepted the resignation of its deputy president, Marek Sawicki. Sawicki's decision stemmed from criticism and accusations from within the party of culpability for the financial losses in the last parliamentary elections when the State Election Commission refused to accept PSL's settlement of election accounts, costing the party zl. 3.8 million. Sawicki was a representative of the Election Committee and chief of PSL's election staff and his activities were regarded as ineffective and incompetent. Polish Peasant Party President, Jaroslaw Kalinowski, will name Sawicki's replacement. The candidates are deputies Eugeniusz Klopotek and Wieslaw Woda and NKW secretary Jan Bury. (Rzeczpospolita, p.
