József Értékes was asked questions relating to his testimony the day before, the participation of the workers of Csepel in the fighting and his short visit to Hungary after he left the country. István Buri, Commander of the National Guard at Csepel, gave a statement about the fighting in Csepel, including one occasion when seventeen people who had already surrendered were killed by a Russian unit at the Gubacsi bridge. Witness Z, member of the Independent Smallholders' Party, was asked about his party's agrarian policy, the political persecutions during the Rákosi era, and Imre Nagy's policy during the revolution.
