Political Consultative Committee (Polish:Polityczny Komitet Porozumiewawczy,PKP) was the beginning of the political arm of thePolish Secret State inoccupied Poland duringWorld War II. It was formed on 26 February 1940 by several Polish political parties continuing their activities underground (Socialist Party,People's Party,National Party andLabor Party). The parties wanted to tighten the cooperation so that they could have more influence over the newly createdAssociation of Armed Struggle (ZWZ) meant by thePolish government in exile as the main unified organization of thePolish resistance. In April 1940 the government in exile recognized the Committee as the country's political representation.[1]
In 1943 it was reformed into theHome Political Representation (Krajowa Reprezentacja Polityczna) which in turn in 1944 would become the basis of theCouncil of National Unity (Rada Jedności Narodowej).
