English Translation

62a - 2 - "The Reichsprotektor determines the internal structure of its authority in agreement with the Reichsministeriwm of the interior as the central office for Bohemia and Moravia." G This structure has proved itself so far to a large extent, although it is admitted that at least in Divisions I and III, in part also in Division II, tasks which are alien to each other are condensed to=. e I am thinking of department I in particular of the group Justis, whose area of responsibility is doubtless not part of the general internal administration and of department III to the group Post, which does not ressort from the Reichsverkehrsministes riun in the Berlin Reichsstelle. The summary of the valorization of the sub=stsselretär wortlich with the previous structure the= sem gegenliber made only the few department heads preant= wortlichen, The certainly existing beauty defect was partly compensated again by the tighter organization and the greater impact force due to the dadruch. The tendency of individual groups, which were least latently present, to carry out their tasks independently depending on the tasks of the other groups, was fostered by the coupling of other groups in the formation of additional units. For this reason, at least according to the local opinion, the organization appeared to be a better one than, for example, with the Goneralgouverneur in Krakow, where a large number of groups - called divisions there - were directly divided among the Secretary of State without a more detailed summary. On this point of view, it is also true that the undersecretary of state felt that he had to argue against the reorganization of the Bohörde which I had presented. K on The basic idea of the planned structure was that in future only one official was appointed to the national ministries of the Protectorate Administration 11156.
