It was proposed for the transition period of 5-10 years to subject the professional restrictions of employees of the Party-Starate of the CPSU, from the first secretaries of the regional tractors to the liberated secretaries of production party organizations, if on August 21, 1991, "they held one of these positions and did not declare the withdrawal from the CPSU voluntarily." Lustration also concerned full -time employees and agents of Soviet and Russian special services. All of them were invited to prohibit the “responsible positions of the territorial executive branch”, as well as teach in secondary and higher educational institutions and military schools and working in the media.
