With the arrival of His Majesty Stanisław August Poniatowski to the Senate, Speaker Stanisław Małachowski initiated the session with these words:

Lithuania-Belarus:

Prince Kazimierz Sapieha, Speaker of the Lithuanian-Belarussian Confederation, took the floor

Alarmed by the sight of weakness, disregarded by some, we hastened to conclude our work from yesterday. That terror held back the proposal I now dare to present. It is futile to convince you of the truth that rebellions spread, and the fire started in one place affects even Lithuania-Belarus with its sparks, mainly due to areas rich in schism and under the Archbishop's jurisdiction rightfully alarming our comrades. We receive reports from all sides, especially from officials in the Pińsk State, begging for prompt justice and punishment of culprits. We have overlooked the potential dangers, dedicating our militia and parts of the Lithuanian-Belarussian military for the protection of Polish territories; now, we urgently request that those forces be redirected back to our regions; the Polish territories have designated courts for quick justice, while in Lithuania-Belarus, the process requires at least five officials to form a court, and many matters need to be resolved around the table. As a result, a criminal might wait years for a verdict, which is a situation that cannot continue unaddressed. Now is a terrifying time as rebellion looms. Sparked to life by the skilled foresight of Your Honor, Mister Speaker, this spark was extinguished by assigning five courts to judge rebels quickly; in our lands, we need not declarations but laws that allow for swift trials of similar crimes. Hence, I implore that my drafted project be read; our soldiers shield the Polish territories, let the territories also allow us to sharpen the sword of justice in our lands. If there's no agreement on the project, I will concede it be delayed till tomorrow for consideration.

Many Representatives spoke up, requesting the reading.

Secretary of the Lithuanian-Belarussian Confederation, Jan Ancuta, read the proposal, titled: Acceleration of Criminal Justice in Lithuania-Belarus. Following that, Prince Kazimierz Sapieha again addressed and reported that the most Reverend Latvian Bishop was taking this project for deliberation, asking that after being debated by Lithuania-Belarus, the Polish Houses will also kindly take it to final decision tomorrow.

Prince Janusz Czetwertyński, senator and castellan from Chernihiv, spoke at the end, requesting his addition be read.

Speaker Stanisław Małachowski replied, agreeing to the request of Prince castellan, on the condition that the initiated project point would be read first.

Secretary Jan Łuszczewski read Point No. 6.

With these remarks exchanged, debates continued over the financier contribution of various territories. Different opinions were raised regarding the tax rates and benefits that could be derived from factories and productive occupations. Debates revealed a tension between the desire to promote industries fundamental to the nation's economy and the necessity to draw revenues for the public treasury. The outcome of the discussions would heavily influence both domestic economic policy and military preparedness.

After much deliberation, voting commenced on whether to impose a tax on resources allocated for factories. The results demonstrated a preference to require factory owners to contribute financially to the state, highlighting the tension between encouraging domestic industries and meeting the immediate fiscal demands of national defense.

The session was later adjourned until the next day at 10 a.m. to allow further consideration of reports concerning espionage and internal threats to the peace of The Union.

The speech of Janusz Czetwertyński, senator, and castellan of Chernihiv, emphasized the internal complexities governing the economic and social fabric of The Union. He argued for special attention to the manufacturing industry and the avoidance of taxes that could stifle economic innovation and prosperity.

The report makes mention of recent external news, including military developments, diplomatic interactions, and cultural affairs from other European States. However, these international tidbits serve as a backdrop to the internal dynamics at play within The Union’s political arena.
