The article is about inter-organizational power relations. The political organizations control the resources. The second level of inter-organizational network is the bureaucracy, which legitimizes the power and interest compromises reached at the political level, helping to converse the political informal agreements into legal rules. At this level one can find a mix of legal and illegal, organizational and personal interests. This mechanism can work only without control. The aim of excluding control needs to make informal agreements with police departments and public prosecutor's office, too. One can see a total round of informal control: a type of inter-organizational informal and formal network. It eliminates control, makes sure the stability of political compromises and opens the way to organizational and personal, legal and not legal interests.
