"itemAffiliateWebUrl" value inconsistency between markets.

[brifre2014_5]

Below I will paste two responses from the eBay API for browsing, followed by the requests that produced each item.

The crux of the issue is that whilst the eBay market for the UK is able to produce "itemAffiliateWebUrl" values, the Polish market is not. Does this mean that the Polish market is closed to the affiliate scheme? Or is there an error I'm missing.
