PRINCIPLES
to ensure control in the national economy and in the state administration of the Czech Socialist Republic, approved by the Resolution of the Government of the Czech Socialist Republic of 26 March 1975 No 60
In further consolidating and developing a socialist society and securing increasingly demanding tasks for the development of the national economy and government, it is essential to improve planned management at all stages.
The planned management shall include the control carried out by the national and economic authorities and organisations, the workers and their organisations. Improving control is one of the continuous efforts to rationalise management and must be a matter not only for all managing bodies, managers and qualified apparatus, but for more and more of all the workers.
The focus of the control as part of the management is based on the guidelines and resolutions of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia and contributes to their fulfilment. It operates on the socio-political and economic aspects of managed processes in order to facilitate the implementation of the Party's economic policy in the various sectors of the national economy.
The content of the active role of control includes not only the protection of the level of development achieved, but above all the influence on further improvement of management and the satisfaction of the company's needs. The following principles shall be issued to ensure control as part of the management activity in the national economy and in the public administration:
I. Basic provisions
1. Control is an important social activity, which identifies at all stages of management how the tasks assigned have been carried out and helps to create the necessary assumptions in time for their implementation. The normal control of the performance of the duties imposed or the conduct of a particular activity shall affect their continued course in the desired direction.
Leaders at all stages of management are therefore required to ensure a comprehensive system of control in their section of activity, in subordinate organisations or departments, to create conditions for its implementation and to use knowledge for correct decision-making.
2. The control shall be carried out in a continuous and timely manner to enable an effective response to adverse developments and deficiencies, to promptly eliminate their causes, to prevent their repetition and to educate them to increase the awareness of workers' responsibility for the correct performance of tasks.
3. The control shall be carried out on a targeted, planned, coordinated and cost-effective basis and shall follow up on the results of previous control actions in order to verify compliance with the measures taken on their basis and to avoid unnecessary or duplication of intervention.
Control personnel shall be responsible for ensuring that their findings are objective and conclusive and that their causes and the persons responsible for their formation or duration are identified with a lack of clarity. This provides for specific and address remedies to be implemented and for adequate disciplinary, material or criminal consequences to be applied to the responsible persons, in particular to damage to social interests or relationships, property and other damage and losses, as well as to the liability of organisations, if any. When carrying out the check, they shall not disregard the benefits of the operation of the controlled organisation and its personnel, and shall ensure that they are used appropriately.
4. Control personnel shall be obliged to inform the party authorities in the organisations in which the control action is carried out and the territorial party authorities of its focus, the deficiencies identified, their causes and the actions of the personnel responsible for their formation or duration.
5. Under the leadership of the party authorities and in cooperation with the authorities of the Revolutionary Trade Union Movement, it is necessary to ensure an increase in the participation of workers in the implementation of control and to develop forms of their involvement. The bodies of the Socialist Union of Youth and other social organisations are also involved in the provision of these tasks. This will strengthen the interest, activity and efforts of workers to make optimum use of the resources for the development of society and the national economy. They will be raised to be inreconcilable with disorder, economy, insubordination and inresponsibility. This will contribute to further developing socialist democracy.
6. The authority which has carried out the examination or revision shall keep a record of their outcome in the audited organisation.
II. Responsibilities of managers in organising and carrying out checks
7. Leaders shall, as part of their managerial work, ensure and carry out checks on compliance with the laws, regulations and other generally binding legislation, directives and orders of senior bodies, internal standards of the organisation and their orders and decisions.
8. The heads of authorities and organisations shall be required to create the conditions for a properly functioning control system and ensure its continuous performance.
- within the organisational unit in relation to all its components and departments,
- in relation to the lower institutions and subordinate organisations.
This check shall be carried out as a continuous activity carried out by:
(a) to the extent of its competence and responsibility, senior management in the various stages of the procedure, in accordance with the "who is managing - controlling" principle,
(b) professional services;
(c) inspection services.
9. Leaders shall exercise control within their competence in person, by using information systems and by means of expert departments subordinate to them, by heads of institutions and organisations, as well as by professional departments and inspection departments.

10. When carrying out an inspection under the "who drives - controls' principle, managers shall also be required to satisfy themselves in person of the accuracy of their orders and decisions; In doing so, they shall, as a general rule, monitor the performance status of the tasks directly at the workplace and, where necessary, supplement or modify their orders to ensure that they are properly performed. It shall immediately inform the immediate superior, who shall be obliged to remedy, of serious obstacles which the manager cannot remove himself.
11. Leaders are obliged to create, in cooperation with the competent authorities of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia, the Revolutionary Trade Union Movement and the Socialist Youth Union, the preconditions for active participation of workers in control. They allow them, according to the nature of the case, to participate in the exercise of the control, to the extent that they are informed of the results of the inspection (e.g. by discussing the deficiencies identified and the measures taken to remedy at meetings, production meetings, etc.). They shall assess and implement the proper incentives to address the deficiencies identified and their causes.
12. Leaders shall base their checks mainly on their own knowledge. They shall in particular:
(a) the data of the system of socio-economic, planning and scientific and technical information;
(b) requested reports, reports and analyses of the tasks imposed;
(c) the proposals, initiatives and complaints of citizens and organisations as well as the ideas for carrying out the checks submitted to them by the working organisations;
(d) the findings and findings of the inspection service and of the relevant professional departments;
(e) the identification of external control authorities;

The required synergies shall also be ensured for subordinate workers. Failure to fulfil these obligations shall be considered a breach of labour discipline.
