She indicated that the participants in the sitting were not informed of the criminal evidence of the man: "This kind of omission constitutes a serious breach of assurance in public institutions," she said.
Voice by Marcin Józefaciuk, Group president
After the scandal broke out, Marcin Józefaciuk published a message on platform X: “(...) [At the gathering – ed.] I invited both the government side and participants from a group of NGOs. Everyone was invited to participate and vote – any Polish citizen could come forward. You could choose either to appear on the place or to talk remotely.
Those who appeared at the site had to be reported by the organization and pass through the office of passes, which it verifies after the PESEL number of the individual concerned. There was no another verification – in peculiar through the registers, due to the fact that the participants were adults, and the subject was maintenance boards (...)’.
The MP admitted that he had no thought who spoke in the sitting. He stated that he trusted the associations to study to those to attend the meeting: “(...) 1 of the associations reported a individual who, as it later turned out, was convicted by a final conviction and held a prison sentence. I was introduced into the mistake as to the degree of this person's guilt. The office of passes does not have the competence to block people who have held a punishment and enjoy full civilian rights."
Józefaciuk stressed that the convicted man and the association who reported his participation were prohibited from appearing at subsequent meetings“When I found out about the case, the individual and the association who seconded it received the PROHIBITION for further participation in the team’s work. The presence of those convicted of specified crimes, even after having served their sentence, will negatively affect the credibility of the squad itself, as well as of all the persons active and the organisations that have appeared in its meetings.”
– It was very bad that individual tried to bring that individual in. Although I realize that she has carried out her punishment, she has full civilian rights, but I do not want to cooperate with specified a person. If you hurt a kid once, you lose my assurance in 100% and you won't get it back," said the parliamentarian in conversation with Wprost.pl.
Changes in the rules and additional verification of guests
Member of the civilian Coalition announced that safety procedures would be sealed. In addition, he submitted a announcement to the D.A. on "the anticipation of a criminal offence being committed by a individual who, having a restraining order, openly stated that the prohibition had broken". On the another hand, the Rules of Procedure of the Parliamentary Group on Children's Protection in the Parent's Separation Process should include an additional provision on the request for in-depth verification of invited guests, including in the registry of Offenders on the Sexual Background.
