After reviewing the draft Law and discussing this with colleagues, we consider it possible to come up with a proposal to introduce some changes to the project that will contribute to the most effective development of private detective work ... Of course, these are not all the changes that are advisable to make to the project .... But this is most relevant .... Regarding the motivation for making such changes to the draft law, we can discuss all issues (if the authors wish, of course) with the authors of the project .... It is advisable, of course, verbally, because. it takes a lot of time to write ... which you need to spend not on scribble, but on work)))))
We propose to state Art. 4,10,31 in the following edition ...
