A primary group G is said to be a l.i.b. group if every idempotent endomorphism of every basic subgroup of G can be extended to an endomorphism of G. We establish the following characterization: A primary group is a l.i.b. group if and only if it is the direct sum of a torsion complete group and a divisible group. The technique used consists of a close analysis of certain subgroups of Prufer-like primary groups.
