The lower house, the Sejm, will start its session at noon that day, while the upper house of the country’s bicameral legislature, the Senate, will begin its first session at 4 p.m., the presidential spokesman, Błażej Spychalski, said.
He told reporters on Tuesday that conservative lawmaker Antoni Macierewicz, a former defence minister, would open the inaugural session of the lower house, while opposition senator Barbara Borys-Damięcka would open the first sitting of the new Senate.
Poles elected a new set of 460 MPs and 100 senators when they went to the ballot box last month.
The conservative Law and Justice party, allied with two smaller groupings in a United Right coalition, won Poland's October 13 parliamentary election and secured a second term in power.
It maintained a majority in the 460-seat lower house, but narrowly lost control of the 100-seat upper house.
Law and Justice leader Jarosław Kaczyński said ahead of the elections that his party would bring in a raft of new policies during the first 100 days of its next term in government.
