To:   THE BUSINESS MANAGER OF THE COUNCIL OF PEOPLE’S COMMISSARS

18. I. 1919

I direct you to report to me immediately all complaints
received by the Managing Department of the Council of
People’s Commissars against all government offices and persons; complaints in writing must be reported to me within twenty-four hours, oral ones—within forty-eight
hours.

The Managing Department should introduce a special registration of these complaints, the person in charge of
the office of the Managing Department being responsible
for careful supervision over the fulfilment of my instructions written on these complaints.
