Division Justice Prague, 13 July 1943 OII Original Bu.o des S aasfehalins with 1 Appendix tb0h Ministerial Council Dr. G i e s 7 13 JULY 1943 in the House. Subject: Title of office of the Reich Protector representing the Office. ..0. On the letter of 10 July 1943 -S/22- 16 5.43. I note the following: .) Annex A. The proposals and dispositions on Appendix A fall into the time shortly before the demise of the then Deputy Reich Protector, //-Obergruppenführer Heydrich. During this first section of his office, //-Oberst-Gruppeführer Daluege was in fact only responsible for the management of the business of the - only hindered - deputy Reichsprotector, // -Obergruppenführers Heydrich. This factual and legal situation corresponds to the proposals and dispositions at that time, whereby certain deviations in the form (instead of "leadership" ... In particular, it is clear from the handwritten margin note of the // Oberst group leader that he has at present only regarded himself as a placeholder of the deputy Reichsprotector Heydrich. However, the term "representative" used here by him is legally inaccurate, since general representatives of the Reich Protector and thus also of the Deputy Reich Protector are the Secretary of State according to the building regulations. 2.) Annex B. 2 Obergruppenführer Heydrich passed. It assumes that as deputy Reichsprotektor now //-Oberst-Gruppeführer Daluege is charged with the conduct of the business of the Reichsprotector. This view is not legally objectionable. According to fP-I-A-212143
