PRINCIPLES
ensuring control in the national economy and administration of the Slovak Socialist Republic, approved by the Government of the Slovak Socialist Republic of 11 June 1975 No 175
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 for all 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, at all stages of the management, identifies 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 performance of a particular activity shall affect their continued course in the desired direction.
Leaders at all stages of management are therefore obliged to ensure a comprehensive system of control on their part of their activities 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 the causes, to prevent them from repeating and to educate them to increase workers' awareness of the 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, together with the deficiencies, shall identify their causes and the persons responsible for their formation or duration. This creates the preconditions for the implementation of specific and address redress measures and for adequate disciplinary, material or criminal consequences against the persons responsible, and, where appropriate, the consequences arising from the responsibility of organisations, in particular social interests or relationships, as well as property and other damage and losses. 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 orientation, of the deficiencies identified, their causes and the conduct 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 shall also be 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. Workers will be raised to be inreconcilable with disorder, economy, discipline 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 its 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.
