It is shown that if a bounded linear operator A commutes with a prespectral operator T of class Γ, then A commutes with the resolution of the identity of class Γ for T, say P (·), if and only if A*(Γ) ⊆ [PC*Γ. Here A* is the dual operator of A and [Pc]*Γ is the linear span of the set {UU ε P (·) c, ξ ε Γ} where P (·) c denotes the commutant of the range of P (·).
