- â A reference to Leninâs amendments to the draft theses of the SEC on implementing the principles of the New Economic Policy; the draft was adopted by the SEC Presidium on July 6, 1921 (see Lenin Miscellany XX, pp. 102â06). The text of the draft with Leninâs amendments was sent to G. M. Krzhizhanovsky, I. T. Smilga, N. P. Bryukhanov, A. M. Lezhava, V. A. Avanesov and V. V. Schmidt. On July 11, the SEC Presidium again examined the draft theses, approved them and passed them on for discussion by the Politbureau of the RCP(b) Central Committee. On July 12, 1921, the SEC theses were examined by the CPC, and on July 16, by the Politbureau of the RCP(b) CC The latter adopted the theses as a basis and appointed a commission to edit them. The commission produced a new variant, to which Lenin also made his amendments (see Collected Works, Fifth (Russian) Edition, Vol. 44, p. 73). This draft was discussed on July 23 at a meeting of the communist group of the Central Committees of the trade unions, the Presidium of the Moscow Gubernia T.U.C., and representatives of Petrograd trade unions. The meeting adopted the theses as a basis and appointed a commission which, together with the Party CC commission, worked out a final text. On August 9, this was adopted by a plenum of the Party Central Committee, and on the same day given legislative form through the CPC as âCPC Instructions on Implementing the Principles of the New Economic Policyâ (see Direktivy KPSS i Sovetskogo pravitelstva po khozyaistvennym voprosam [Directives of the CPSU and the Soviet Government on Economic Questions], Vol. 1, Moscow, 1957, pp. 254â59).
