Establishing Salaries for Commissioners of the Police Committee of Both Nations

In today's Congress session, a new act was passed concerning the Police Committee of Both Nations. The President, with the agreement of the Houses of Congress, has established that each commissioner of the Police Committee for both nations will receive an annual salary of ten thousand Polish gold coins. The entire sum of such salaries is to be paid in quarterly installments, and the responsibility for this has been entrusted to the Treasury Committees of Both Nations. This measure will ensure that the commissioners are adequately compensated for their work in maintaining public order and safety across the wide-ranging territories of Poland-Ukraine and Lithuania-Belarus.

Latin Parish Churches in the Kiev Diocese

In today’s congressional buzz, an act that's been the talk of the town is the establishment of Latin parish churches in the Kiev Diocese. Spearheaded by Bishop Kasper Kolumna-Cieciszowski, the proposal aims to build twenty-four churches in the states of Kiev and Bracław (now part of Poland-Ukraine). These aren't just any old prayer houses; they're planned to pepper the previously royal lands, capturing the spirit of local needs and pastoral diligence.

The Congress and Mister President have given the green light, laying out directives for Polish-Ukrainian nobility to demarcate lands for churches, cemeteries, clergy residences, and even schools. They're looking at three acres for orchards, fields, and meadows. Funding? Locked at 3,000 ducats annually from public coffers.

The projects, once prepped, will head to the treasury commission of both nations for a final check to ensure everything is on the up and up before receiving the sacred seal of "Eternal Management of Royal Lands." Over six years, funds will pour into construction and church orders. After that, the bishop will appoint worthy folks to present to The President. Their aim: execution in line with ecclesiastical law. And they've capped tax payouts at 5% – priests won't be pocketing any tithes in these new digs!
