AMENDMENT TO THE DECREE OF THE COUNCIL OF PEOPLE’S COMMISSARS CONCERNING THE LEASING OF VSNKh ENTERPRISES. 
[July 5, 1921]

… 8. The state assumes no obligations whatsoever with regard to the supply of enterprises leased out, or of their workers and employees. Exceptions are permitted only in cases where [particularly large] orders are placed by a state institution—and even then, only upon the special, case‑by‑case authorization of the Presidium of the VSNKh.

In this connection, the question of leasing state industrial enterprises under the jurisdiction of local and central bodies of the VSNKh, as presented in the report of P. A. Bogdanov, was brought before the Council of People’s Commissars on July 5, 1921.
