His Majesty’s decision is communicated to the
Governor General in a letter of the Minister,
who is responsible for the conformity of this
despatch with the wish of the Sovereign.
All documents forwarded to the Senate are
to be in both the Russian and Swedish
languages. The first secretaries of the two sections
of the chancery are responsible for the
conformity of the texts.
The Minister-Secretary of State is the
intermediary agent for correspondence with the
Ministers, and other higher authorities of the
Empire, on matters which relate to the Empire
as well as to the Grand Duchy, and which
occasion communications from either side.
There may, however, be a direct
correspondence between the Governor-General and the
authorities of the Empire in cases requiring
merely executive measures.*
* Besides this, it is established by the rules of the
administration of pilotage and lighthouses in Finland, that the
Governor-General may forward direct to the Imperial Ministry
of Marine communications concerning certain measures
appertaining to that department.—(Author’s note.)
