A procedure is suggested for calculating electroexcitation multipoles to order 1/$M_N$${}^2$ with only the operators required in the calculations to order 1/$M_N$. It is also shown that calculations to order 1/$M_N$${}^2$ cannot account for the contributions of a fully relativistic calculation of the transverse response.
