Summary/Abstract: The Security Service (SB), especially the Department III A of the provincial Citizen’s Militia headquarter (KW MO – Komenda Wojewódzka Milicji Obywtelskiej) in Słupsk administrated by major/colonel Stanisław Kwiatkowski, took a close interest in the activity of the Independent Self-governing Trade Union“Solidarity” (NSZZ “Solidarność”), from the very beginning of its existence in that region. The SB functionaries tried not only to collect any piece of information about the activity of the Inter-Factory Founding Committee’s (Międzyzakładowy Komitet Założycielski, MKZ) presidium members and – from June 1981 – of the Regional Administration’s (Zarząd Regionu) members, but also to paralyse some of their projects. In order to achieve it, the SB made use of inner MKZ’s conflicts that occurred a few months after the foundation of the “Solidarity”.
