The National Assembly of the Czechoslovak Republic decided on the following Act:

Bound construction.
(1) Binding building materials forming a building contingent under this Act (§ 2, paragraph 1) are materials and articles intended to be built in and carried out by construction works and auxiliary works of construction, or necessary to carry out craft works for construction, which are declared to be such by the Ministry of Industry, Internal Trade and Technology and, as regards wood, also by the Ministry of Agriculture by decree in the Official Gazette.
(2) In accordance with the procedure referred to in paragraph 1, the binding of building materials may also be reduced or cancelled.
(3) Bound building materials can only be acquired if they have been allocated by the competent authority or authority.
§ 2.
Building contingent.
(1) The building contingent consists of materials and products which, pursuant to Section 1, will be declared binding building materials.
(2) The building contingent is divided into:
(a) a contingent for construction production; and
(b) a contingent for building maintenance.
(3) The General Secretariat of the Economic Council (Section 5 of the Decree of the President of the Republic of 25 August 1945, No. 63 Coll., on the Economic Council) determines the building contingent at appropriate times, usually quarterly (contingent periods), according to the actual state of production of the linked building materials and possible imports, taking into account the implementation plans of the single economic plan. Bound building materials, forming a building contingent, will be handed over by the Ministry of Industry and, for wood, by the Ministry of Agriculture to the Ministry of Technology.
(4) The building contingent is administered by the Ministry of Technology. The Minister of Technology is responsible for the economical use of the bundled building materials and for using them to properly fulfil the tasks of the construction plans.
§ 3.
Continent for construction production.
(1) The Construction Continent is divided by the Ministry of Technology in agreement with the General Secretariat of the Economic Council and with the participation of the ministries concerned and representatives of the volumes of the People's Administration designated by the Ministry of Interior into sub-contingent units for each field of construction according to the shares of their production plans in the construction implementation plan. The areas of construction are:
1. construction production carried out by Czechoslovak construction plants, national enterprise,
2. construction production by other national undertakings;
3. construction production carried out by the government,
4. construction production by municipal construction enterprises;
5. construction production by cooperative construction enterprises;
6. construction production by private construction companies.
(2) The Ministry of Technology may, in agreement with the General Secretariat of the Economic Council and with the participation of the ministries concerned and the representatives of the volumes of the People's Administration designated by the Ministry of Interior, make transfers in these sub-continents necessary for the proper performance of the tasks of the implementation plans for construction.
(3) The Minister of Technology may, by means of a regulation in agreement with the participating ministers, transfer the management of sub-contingent for each field of construction and for each territory to other authorities or authorities and determine the scope of their authorisation and the way in which the sub-contingent is managed.
(4) The Ministry of Technology shall ensure that partial contingent for each field of construction production is used in accordance with the implementation plans of construction production. The sub-contingent administrators, the designation referred to in paragraph 3, shall comply with the orders and directives of the Ministry of Technology and shall submit to that Ministry, after contingent periods, the accounting of the subcontingent to carry out the inspection and comparison with the implementation plan of the construction sector concerned.
§ 4.
Continent for building maintenance.
(1) In agreement with the General Secretariat of the Economic Council and with the participation of the ministries concerned and the representatives of the volumes of the People's Administration designated by the Ministry of the Interior, the Ministry of Technology shall divide the Continent for the maintenance of the buildings into sub-continents:
1. transport,
2. postal,
3rd Military,
4. industrial,
5. Agricultural,
6. Business,
7th Medical,

Nine others.

Allocation and use of bound building materials.
§ 5.
(1) There is no legal entitlement to the allocation of bound building materials.
(2) Binding construction works are normally assigned to the construction plant. Exceptions may be set by the Minister of Technology by regulation.
(3) The contingent for construction production can only be allocated to the buildings included in the construction plans.
(4) There is no appeal against the decision on the allocation of bound building materials.
(5) Bound building materials may only be used for the construction for which they were assigned; If they have not been used for this construction for any reason, the allocation must be notified without delay to the authority (s) which assigned them to it and treated as instructed by it. Where the Office (authority) places an allocation in order to transfer it to another person, it shall also determine the compensation in accordance with price regulations.
(6) The Minister of Technology shall determine the competence to allocate bound building blocks and the procedure thereof by means of a regulation, which may provide for specific arrangements for each territory.
§ 6.
The Ministry of Technology oversees the accuracy of the allocation of bound building materials and the use of assigned fixed building materials.
§ 7.
Where a permit is required for construction under specific regulations (e.g. construction, water, railway, mining), the authority which granted the authorisation shall, at the same time as the approval under these rules, check the correct and efficient use of the bundled building materials. The allocation is required to submit the necessary statements and calculations on the used bundled constructions.
§ 8.
Criminal provisions.
(1) Proceedings and omissions transposing the provisions of this law or of the regulations issued pursuant to it shall be punishable in the absence of a criminal offence, as an administrative offence of up to 500 000 Ccs or by a prison (lock) within 6 months or both.
(2) At the same time as the fine, in the event of non-availability, a replacement prison sentence (lock-down) shall be imposed according to the rate of guilt within 6 months. In addition to the fine, if a sentence has been imposed at liberty, it may not exceed 6 months, together with the prison detention penalty. When repenting a person entitled to lead or to conduct a construction or to confirm the accuracy of technical calculations and plans, the loss of his or her authorisation may also be declared for a certain period or forever.
