This committee is to prepare in Moscow a detailed statement of the conditions for the reunion, and direct the carrying out of this union in Italy. The Executive is to be considered as the court of last resort in all conflicting issues.
The Central Executives of both parties are to conduct the general business of their parties until the unification congress. They are, however, subordinated in their whole political activity as well as in their work of preparing the unification to the Organisation Committee.
