The author reveals some modern trends of law-making activities of international organizations. Special attention is paid to the trends of the current law-making in the Commonwealth of Independent States with the focus on the draft of the CIS Regulations on a Single Register of Legal Documents.

It will be based on modern computer information technologies for systematization, maintenance and providing for informational needs of users. The author notes the necessity of improvement of the mechanism of agenda formation of the CIS Council of the Heads of States and Prime Ministers summits. In the author's opinion it is expedient to develop a normative act regulating the procedure of forming appropriate agenda for the sessions of the CIS Council of the Heads of States and the CIS Council of Prime Ministers taking into consideration the experience of other international organizations. Separate items of the agenda draft for the CIS Council of the Heads of State could contain documents for discussion to be signed, documents to be signed and documents to be delegated to other CIS bodies.
