Ladies and gents, I regret to inform you that our President was absent today due to ill health. Speaker Stanisław Małachowski addressed the House, expressing concern for the President's wellbeing and discussing a proposal for public spending cuts, asserting, "Taxes are futile without frugality."Speaker Małachowski particularly highlighted the urgency of adopting this new framework into law.

Representative Wojciech Suchodolski raised an issue on a particular point given to Commissioner Wągrocki related to Krakow's mining interests. Representative Mateusz Butrymowicz clarified that a directive isn't the same as a law, which lasts indefinitely. He emphasized on keeping laws distinct from directives and suggested that we should utilize Major Wągrocki for his capacity and talents.

Prince Sapieha voiced his concerns, suggesting that the committee involved should focus solely on supplying metal, and the General of Artillery should handle its actual use. Representative Jan Lipski then proposed that cloth for uniforms should be sourced directly from local manufacturers to promote domestic industries.

Tadeusz Matuszewicz, a representative from Brest, argued that competition is the lifeblood of trade and manufacturing, and legally securing market access to domestic factories could dampen their motivation for improvement. Instead, he proposed giving preference to local producers without enforcing it as a legal requirement.

Representative Wojciech Suchodolski, persisting in his opposition, raised financial concerns about creating new paid positions when there are already major military payments due. He also contended that previous laws regarding cavalry should remain unaltered.

Representative Michał Czacki insisted that past laws need not be repealed, but could be incorporated into the new proposal.

Amidst the debates, Speaker Małachowski expressed his wish to reform the proposed project and welcomed collaborators to refine the draft. Prince Sapieha suggested the involvement of the General of Artillery to oversee the quality of metals provided to the military.

As the debate continued, Representative Antoni Rożnowski defended the right to read any proposal and commented on the Cavalry's inclusion under the umbrella of the proposed clothing mandate for the military.

Prince Adam Czartoryski of Lublin spoke about the importance of established order, warning against hasty allocation of power to the yet unformed committee. He put forth an amendment to ensure the committee would be led by the General of Artillery and include both military and civilian officers.

The session ended with Representative Walerian Stroynowski highlighting the inefficiencies in the committee proposal suggesting further review in a provincial session. Finally, Speaker Małachowski concluded by suspending the session until Monday due to upcoming imperative international negotiations and the need to expedite such tasks.

Stay tuned, folks, as we keep an eye on our civic leaders threading through the labyrinth of laws and attempting to safeguard our coffers while laying out the foundation for our nation's governance.
