"In order to deal with the matter of property persecution and restitution of Jewish property after the Second World War in the Slovak part of Czechoslovakia, the special department of the Comission for the Industry and Commerce was established in in June 1945. Its mission was to liquidate former Central Economic Office (Ústredný hospodársky úrad) responsible for the major part of the so called Aryanization of property, as well as to legally deal with the restitution and to prepare the restitution law.\r\nBesides that the Department VII dealt with the issue of so called National Administration (Národná správa) of property, took care of administration of blocked accounts, tax issues etc.\r\n\r\nIn 1946 the Department VII was formally dissolved and its agenda was taken over by the newly established Presidial Department 5 (Prez 5).\r\nThis department kept records on all restitution claims, issued official statements in regards to previously Aryanized property, controlled the bank accounts with assets whose owners were deported from Slovakia in 1942 or 1944/1945, and kept records on blocked accounts and payments made to these blocked accounts (repayment of the liquidating value of Aryanized enterprises etc.). After another organizational change the Presidial Department 5 was dissolved in 1948 and its agenda was taken over by another department. Due to the changes in Czechoslovakia pertaining to the establishemnt of Communist regime as well as subsequent dissolving of Commission for Industry and Commerce in 1951 the whole agenda was closed in 1952.\r\n\r\n"@eng .
