Abstract
It is shown that in the Hamiltonian description of a wide class of gauge invariant Lagrangian systems there arise only primary and secondary constraints and they are all first class. The explicit expressions for the Poisson brackets of the Hamiltonian and the constraints are obtained by introducing the so-called “standard” extension of functions originally defined on the primary constraint surface to the whole phase space.
