Abstract
Ten years before the signing of the historic August agreements in Gdansk, a similar event took place in Gdynia. It had a local dimension, but for the first time in the history of the PRL (Polish People’s Republic), representatives of the communist authorities sat down to talk with the striking workers. This resulted in a document signed by both parties, which was a Memorandum of Understanding between a seven-person delegation of the workplaces of the Paris Commune Shipyard, Stocznia Rementowa (Repair Shipyard), Board of the Port and Dalmor and representatives of the Presidium of the Municipal National Council in Gdynia, signed on December 15, 1970 at the MRN Presidium in Gdynia. The history of the creation of the protocol is recalled in numerous accounts of the participants of the talks, it is also mentioned in the documents drawn up by the PZPR units or SB (Security Service) units. However, it is unknown to the general public that there are two versions of the protocol. They are almost homogeneous, differ only in three postulates added manually and a different composition of signatories on the part of striking workers. The article tries to explain the circumstances of the two versions of the document and the reasons for the differences.
