- 5 ts which, in addition to their actual duties, carry out searches for economic criminal acts in accordance with their duties. In order to standardise the economic control service, I also intend to issue a decree on competence, organisational and personnel measures aimed at harmonising and summarizing the food, supply and price control services of the district authorities and of Annex D. Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, I should like to thank the President-in-Office of the Council for his excellent report. These requested measures are directly subordinated to the control bodies of the Ministry of Agriculture and of the Department of Commerce, which are exposed to the splendour of the various district authorities and magistrates, with their own statute, with regard to the provision of the control service, to the district heads and mayors / or government commissioners / cities, so that they are given the opportunity to deepen and coordinate the service of these bodies directly. In addition, the price monitoring bodies established at the headquarters of the Oberlandrats will make available to the district authorities and magistrates a part of their control apparatus, so that at the previous price monitoring centres only specially trained organs /calculators etc. remain, the service of which the district heads and mayors / government commissaries / of the cities with their own statute will be able to take on request. Through the above measures, the district chiefs, the primator of the capital Prague and the government commissaries of the cities of Brno, Olomouc and Moravia-Ostrava immediately become the immediate head of the control service in food, supply and price matters.
