English Translation

(a) In all areas where committees and rings have already existed and where they have been appointed to the Protectorate of the District Commissioners, it will be possible to remain more or less in the current system. A certain difficulty could arise from the fact that the committees and rings so far have a very informal right of order. As a result, most of the district officials had decided to issue the orders to be issued by the Minister for Economic Affairs and Labour, as this would ensure regular publication, ongoing monitoring and, where appropriate, criminal prosecution. After the committees and rings receive the rights from the trade regulation, it must be expected that they themselves will issue and publish orders. The trade regulation does not apply in the Protectorate. Accordingly, such orders issued by committees and rings in other areas of the Empire would not have any legal effect in Bohemia and Moravia. In addition to this legal aspect of the matter, it is also unlikely that it would be useful - although it is true that it is bilingual - to give direct effect to the instructions issued by the committees and wrestlings in the Protectorate. Instead, a way must be found here - under certain circumstances in accordance with the current regulation - that - just as in the case of the Reichsstelle's relationship with the supervisory authority, there are also certain orders for the Protectorate which correspond in substance to the orders of the Ausschiisse and Ringe in the other Reichsgebiet.
