Co-ordination of restitution procedure throughout Western Germany was demanded here today by Dr. Franz Zdralek, head of the Bavarian Restitution Office. Speaking before the state parliament, Dr. Zdralek said that such co-ordination would close many “gaps” in the restitution system and would speed the pace of reparations payments and the rehabilitation of persecutees.
Reporting on the record of the Bavarian restitution program, Dr. Zdralek said that so far the state had paid out 68,000,000 to 69,000,000 Deutschemarks on restitution and rehabilitation claims. However, he said, to complete the job Bavaria will have to pay out a total of 350,000,000 Deutschemarks.
