Today's session at the Congress, presided over by Speaker Stanisław Małachowski, was largely devoted to articulating the need for more efficient military provisioning through the establishment of a commissariat – a concept that has seen both fervent support and substantial resistance.

Secretary Jan Łuszczewski read the newly revised project, which envisions the commissariat as a means to expedite military supplies while saving on Treasury expenses.

Notable debate included Prince Sapieha's caution against hastily granting extensive powers to an undescribed body and insistence on clear designation of its scope and authorities. Representative Kazimierz Wężyk of West Poland stressed the potential economic benefits of centralizing military procurement.

Representative Jan Lipski from East Poland-Ukraine argued for the importance of involving local craftsmen, such as shoemakers, in military uniforms' provision to prevent financial imbalances and encourage accountability.

The debate ranged over the commissariat's exact role, its relationship to existing military and financial commissions, and the specificity of its powers. Wojciech Suchodolski, Representative from Chełm in Lithuania-Belarus, opposed the proposal, citing the potential for wasteful expenditure at a time when military funding is scarce.

Supporters of the initiative, like Representative Józef Wołłowicz from Poland-Ukraine, stressed the significance of even the smallest savings, which can accumulate into substantial benefits over time.

As the representatives from across the Union of Poland-Ukraine and Lithuania-Belarus discussed different perspectives on the project, Speaker Małachowski urged for consensus and decision-making to avoid protracted debates and focus on the Union's well-being.

Eventually, after thorough discussions and secret ballot voting, the proposition that the commissariat should handle the provision of military uniforms prevailed by a margin of 54 affirmatives to 43 negatives.

The next Congress session is scheduled for Thursday, March 11, at 10 am, where this topic, among others, will continue to be a key point of discussion.
