		Although a policy was never officially spelled out, dachas were placed under the control of district committees known as raiispolkomi (Райисполкомы or Районные исполнительные комитеты - "Regional Executive Committees"), and thus effectively legitimized but with restrictions: each family was allowed only one dacha and "lordly" dachas (with running water or large stoves) were forcibly nationalized.
