Speaker Stanisław Małachowski opened the session noting some may feel that yesterday’s meeting produced little results, yet it’s far from wasted time. The generous tax contributions of cities, both in Poland-Ukraine and Lithuania-Belarus regions, especially the considerable funding put forth by Warsaw, heartens each patriot. With such widespread eagerness to aid our nation, let us implore Providence for continued guidance in our endeavors. Mr. Małachowski then mentioned a pending legislative proposal requiring an oath, and called upon Secretary Jan Łuszczewski to read the draft oath text.

Secretary Jan Łuszczewski presented the unanimously approved oath - a solemn pledge to perform duties faithfully and impartially regarding taxation and revenue collection for the Union, not favoring one's own state, county, or county over fairness and equity amongst all regions.

Representative Kazimierz Rzewuski from Podolia brought up issues with the defense commission's conduct, noting instances of improper appointments and inadequate oversight. The Congress then considered a proposal to establish a committee to investigate the defense commission operations.

Representative Franciszek Jerzmanowski from Łęczyca proposed an amendment to punish baseless accusations during committee investigations. There were discussions on whether this would encroach on the committee's investigative autonomy, with various congressmen voicing their opinions on the subject.

Debates continued on various topics like the military commission’s oversight and proposed reviews of its finances. Noteworthy contributions came from Representative Onufry Morski from Podolia who differentiated between a review committee and the overall scrutiny of public offices, stressing the urgency to examine the administration of the military commission, especially given the recent military operations and funding issues.

After extensive debate, a resolution was adopted to investigate military commission activities. Representative Rzewuski then suggested the need for evaluating the processes of military rank appointments to ensure that worthy military personnel are not overlooked due to nobility or personal connections.

The President clarified the importance of this matter, but suggested that the newly enacted law may suffice for the time being. The Speaker added that Congress should be wary of mis-characterized complaints against the military commission which might detract from its operational focus, particularly in times of looming external threats.

The session also touched upon the Union's foreign relations, especially with the distressing declaration from the Swedish Minister, raising concerns about Russia’s continued assertive stance towards Sweden, suggesting the Union should be attentive to its own affairs to avoid falling under undue influence from external powers.

Moreover, crucial inquiries were made about the Union's diplomatic efforts in Russia, and the Union’s pursuit of compensation for damages caused by Russian troops passing through its territories.

Representatives from Kraków and Podolia sought public acknowledgement of their diligence and efforts on behalf of their regions within Congress. A personal letter of defense was requested for those facing unjust accusations from their respective states.

Finally, the session addressed local matters like the relocation of the Civil-Military Commission's offices and noted the need for more efficient tax administration. Representatives emphasized the importance of fair taxation and equity among the people of the Union. As the diverse discussions of the day drew to a close, the session adjourned, and will reconvene next Monday.
