Cabinet-Ministry / State-Ministry / State Presidium 1853 - 1932 A Princely Cabinet was set up by the Sovereign Decree of 12 September 1853 in order to separate the "affairs of state and government suitable for Our personal knowledge and decision-making" from the "management assigned to Our Government College". Referral should be made to the Cabinet "the affairs of Our House and the exterior, parliamentary and military matters, the exercise of the supreme right of supervision over the judiciary and police, such as ecclesiastical and public education, all matters relating to the employment of senior civil servants, recurrence and graces" (Landesverordnungen 11, p. 105). An ordinance of 30.09.1853 did not regulate the execution of decrees signed by the Prince himself under the name "Cabinet Ministry" by the Cabinet Executive Board (Landesverordnungen 11, p. 113). The cabinet ministry then consisted of the cabinet minister (since 1897 minister of state), a cabinet secretary and a registrar along with other office and law firm personnel, later temporarily also a cabinet council and government speakers. The "State Manual" in the Fürstl. Lippic calendar to the year 1914 calls in the "Princely State Ministry", beside which there is a prince. Cabinet in the Court State, the Minister of State, Exc., a Secretary of State and* Council of Accounts, a Registrar of Ministries (Sievert) and a Pedell; in 1914 two assistants and an actuary were present in the office (L 75 II - 1, 21). The position of the Ministry as the "Supreme Administrative Authority" in superordination over the government as the "Supreme Administrative Authority" remained unchanged even after the overthrow of 1918. After an interlude of the People's and Soldiers' Council (its acts here under I - 1 No. 39) in 1919, the ministry was replaced by a three-member state presidium in accordance with the constitution, which exercised the previous powers of the prince and the state ministry (state ordinances 26, p. 913); according to the "State Manual" it existed in Lipp. Calendar for the year 1930 consisting of the 3 members, one of whom was chairman and managing member, and one presidential officer. The office staff not mentioned here consisted in Jan. 1931 of two civil servants of remuneration groups 7 and 8, who had to cope with approx. 15,000 receipts annually (L 75 II - 2 a no. 1; here also via the registry order). By an ordinance of 14 Oct. 1931 to secure the state budget, the state presidium and government were then united to form a state government with effect from 01.04.1932 (state ordinances 31, p. 393). A common set of rules of procedure of the Landespräsidium and the government of the Land Lippe of 28 November 1928 had already been in force since 1 January 1929 (L 75 IV - 1, 25; L 80.04 No. 268; previously a special set of rules of procedure of the Landespräsidium of 5 January 1927: L 75 III - 1 No. 13a). If the order of the administrative reform had stated that the government would be abolished as the supreme administrative authority and that the state presidium would henceforth use the term "state government", the relationship was de facto the other way round. On the basis of the presidential decrees of 1 June, 13 July and 28 Oct. 1932 on the rules of procedure, distribution of business and official regulations of the provincial government (L 75 IV - 1, 23; L 80.04 No. 268), the provincial presidium was incorporated into the government, in whose Dept. I (Internal Affairs) only the general affairs of the Reich and the province - such as the later negotiations for accession - were now dealt with. The content of this ministerial registration thus continues in the governmental registration (L 80.04).

Coats The typewritten index was written off in August/September 2008 by Gunnar Haas from Herford as part of a contract for work in VERA (in new spelling). Only those files that were ticked off as existing were recorded; occasionally a minor editorial revision took place. Detmold, November 2008 signed oscillator
