Allied Control Councils and Commissions
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 22 May 2009
Extract
After consideration of possible control machinery and zones of occupation in Austria, the European Advisory Commission agreed that the Allied Control Machinery in Austria should consist of an Allied Council, an Executive Committee, and staffs appointed by the four governments concerned. The whole organization, composed of the governments of the United Kingdom, the United States of America, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, and the Provisional Government of the French Republic, was known as the Allied Commission for Austria. The purposes of the Allied Commission, as laid down by the European Advisory Commission, include 1) the separation of Austria from Germany; 2) the establishment of a central Austrian administrative machine; 3) preparation for the establishment of a freely elected Austrian Government; and 4) facilitation of the administration of Austria.
