--Keeping holy the Lord's Day
--A day for home and family
--Cashiers and shop assistants also need Sunday off
--The ban is backied by the trade unions
--Shops are closed on Sunday in Germany, Austria and elsewhere
Arguments against include:
--Some people are busy all week and can shop only on Sunday
--Poland cannot afford to lose sales during a crisis.
Where do you stand on this?

To the Sejm came a draft of amendment to the Labour Code, which provides for a prohibition on Sunday trading in large establishments. From the last two days exist great social debate: Shops should be open or closed?
The public is divided. On the one hand, employed in shopping centers often work seven days a week for several hours a day and free Sunday they certainly would accept with joy. On the other, many people work a week late into the evening and Sunday was often the only day when you can be alone to go shopping.
