47 After breaking up, according to Heydrich, the time came to bend the Czech nation (64), to which the new arrangement of things in the Protectorate was to contribute. The actual implementation of the administrative reform was entrusted to the representative Reich's Reichshooting Reich. He also started to prepare it intensively shortly after his arrival in Prague. He also identified the main objective of this event: subverting the protectorate autonomy without endangering its outer skin. Heydrich further determined that the autonomous administration would be fully integrated into the service of the empire by the vastest possible German penetration. Heydrich's reform can be divided into three stages, first it was a) the reorganization of the central authorities, then the follow-up b) the reform of the local administration, both autonomous and German Oberlandrats, and finally c) the adaptation of the agenda and functioning of the Office of the Reich Protector of the above changes. May 1942 (65), in agreement with the Reich Minister of the Interior within the limits of the Protectorate Statute, to take appropriate measures to adapt the administration in Bohemia and Moravia to the current state (der jeweils gegebenen Lage) and to adopt the necessary regulations, a reconstruction of central autonomous institutions was carried out at his direction (66). The reorganisation of central bodies became the issue of the Government Decree No. 14/1942 Coll. on the new organization of certain central offices from 15 January (67) (later replaced by the so-called reorganisation regulation No.208/1942 Sb. from 15 June) (68) and the Government Order No. 80/1942 No. (69) This partly followed the Heydrich Decree of 27 February 1942, which amended the exercise of its normalizing powers. (70) On the basis of Heyddrich's efforts to simplify the interaction of the Reich Protector with the various ministries, and thus the acceleration of the implementation of German orders was abolished by the Presidium of the Ministerial Council. Only the Prime Minister's secretariat was left to deal with administrative matters, and the government, as a congregation body, ceased to exist and its regulatory authority ceased.
