Inspection should be done based on metrics, military ID and passports (in the absence of metrics and military ID - demand other similar detailed documents).
Directors, deputy directors or heads on institutions are personally responsible for accuracy of the inspection and truthfulness of the information. It is imperative to create the lists of identified kikes or individuals related to kikes through family, and communists and Komsolmol members, and send the lists to arts subdivision.
