In 1899 the [[Patriarch of Constantinople]] established a commission to investigate the issue of Metropolitan Ambrosii and his acceptance of the primacy of the Russian Old Orthodox Church. The committee issued a decree of recognition of the hierarchy established by Metropolitan Ambrosii. This decree met with disapproval from [[Constantine Pobedonostsev]], [[Ober-Procurator]] of the [[Most Holy Synod]].
