To the Air Office Prague Subject: Aviation budget for Bohemia and Moravia Reference Letter. of 2.6.1943 - Abt. Va 1, No.302/43 To the draft of the booking board presented with reference agency to Chapter A 17 Tit. 47 of the budget of the R.d.L. and whether.d.L. is agreed. The division of funds proposed by the authority of the Reichsprotektor in Bohemia and Moravia according to the existing offices in the autonomous budget will not be considered necessary, since, on the one hand, the appropriations provided for in the budget statements under paragraphs 1 - 4 are in any case eligible for cover among themselves and on the other hand, in the absence of experience, they are based on preliminary estimates. If necessary, the question will be re-examined after the end of the first year of the budget after experience has been obtained. From the present offers made during the meetings in Prague by the authorities of the Reichsguardor in Bohemia and Moravia, through the latter direct bookings for the R.d.L. and Ob.dL. on cap. A l7 Tit. In order to simplify in this way the reimbursement of the amounts paid by autonomous means at the expense of the rich budget, no use can be made for reasons of principle. On the contrary, the following procedure is proposed for accounting and reimbursement: Group IVa of the Autonomous Ministry of Transport and Technology has been notified of the appropriations it spends on the budget of the Reich on a quarterly basis in a "report on appropriations spent on the account of Chapter A l7 of Title 47 of the Budget of the R.D.L. and Ob.d.L." relating to expenses incurred by the Reich in connection with the costs of civil aviation in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia.
