AMENDMENTS AND REMARKS TO THE DRAFT REGULATIONS ON THE SMALL COUNCIL OF PEOPLE’S COMMISSARS

It is not good Russian.

10. All final decisions of the Small Council of People’s Commissars, i.e., those settling a question on its merits, except those indicated in Article 5, are referred—it cannot be put that way, the matter—to the Council of People’s Commissars. All particular decisions, of an incidental nature, such as: various investigations, collection of necessary materials, referral of matters to the appropriate jurisdiction, all kinds of replies to inquiries from departments addressed to the Small Council, as well as matters of office routine and administrative and economic affairs of the Council of People’s Commissars, are settled by the Small Council—this is better—on its own authority finally and are not referred to the Big Council.

+ I advise inserting: obligatory summoning of a representative of the Moscow Soviet on all questions concerning it.

+ obligatory summoning of all interested People’s Commissariats.
