It would appear that considerable time would be needed.
The decree enacted new taxes for couples with fewer than three children. Childless citizens must pay six per cent of their annual income; citizens with one child one per cent; citizens with two or three children one half of one per cent.
Before passage of the decree, a mother whose marriage was not registered could appeal to a court to determine the father, and claim money for the support of the child.
The new decree removes this privilege.
The Council of People's Commissars also was instructed to see that marriage ceremonies were made more solemn.
