Everything about Gosplan totally explainedGosplan or State Planning Committee ( Russian:, ) was the committee responsible for economic planning in the Soviet Union. The word "Gosplan" is an abbreviation for Gosudarstvennyi Komitet po Planirovaniyu ( Russian:, State Committee for Planning). One of its main duties was the creation of Five-Year Plans.
The body was formed on February 22, 1921 as the "RSFSR State Planning Commission", by decree of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic's Sovnarkom. The GOELRO plan, the first large-scale Soviet plan to recover the Russian economy, was first to put Gosplan to the test. After the creation of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics on August 21, 1923, the USSR State Planning Commission of the USSR Council of Labour and Defence was established. The abbreviation "Gosplan" has been in use since 1921.
Initially Gosplan had an advisory role. Its primary objective was the co-ordination of the economic plans of Union republics and the creation of the common Union plan. In 1925 Gosplan started creating annual economic plans, known as "control numbers" .
Its work was coordinated with the USSR Central Statistical Directorate, the Narkomat of Finance, and the All-Union Council of State Economy, and later with Gosbank and Gossnab.
With the introduction of five year plans in 1928, Gosplan became responsible for their creation and supervision according to the outlines set out by the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.
In 1930 the Statistical Directorate was merged into Gosplan, and on February 3, 1931 Gosplan was resubordinated to the Sovnarkom.
In May 1955 Gosplan was split into two commissions: the USSR Council of Ministers State Commission for Perspective Planning (USSR Gosplan), and the USSR Council of Ministers Economic Commission for Immediate State Economic Planning . These were, respectively, tasked with predictive and immediate planning. The work of the latter was based on the five-year plans delivered by Gosplan, with Gosplan planning 10–15 years ahead.
Gosplan was headquartered at the building now occupied by the Federation Council of Russia, in Moscow.
