German term or phrase: Assessorat
Antrag eingereicht vom Assessorat _________

Abteilung / Amt. No. xx.x

This is from an Austrian document concerning government guidelines on water usage for the production of a product. The field after "Assessorat" isn't filled out. An online dictionary gives "Aldermanship" but I don't know if that is appropriate. It's from an autonomous province in South Tirol.

a) UaB South Tyrol
Besides marketing assistance the SBB offers also further education through a 100 % daughter association, the “cooperative for further education” or through the regional government administration (Assessorat für Landwirtschaft - Abteilung 22: Land-, forst- und hauswirtschaftliche Weiterbildung).

The juridical and administrative issues of Holidays on farm are dealt with by the provincial agricultural administration, department of agricultural infrastructure (the “Assessortat für Landwirtschaft – Amt für Ländliches Bauwesen”). This department also handles the quality grading. The affiliation to this department shows also the main direction of support: the regional government offers high subsidies (up to 60%) to farms investing in physical infrastructure to improve the offer.

Reference information:
Anhand der Google-Suche kann man feststellen, dass das so etwas wie eine Abteilung der Kommunalverwaltung in Südtiroler Gemeinden/Städten sein dürfte.
Am besten wird die Frage wohl ein Südtiroler beantworten können.

agree  Ken Cox: Given the Südtirol connection, it might be useful to try to find the Italian equivalent and work from Italian .

Reference information:
(I have no love for Wiki as a source, but this is interesting):

In Italien werden die „Minister“ in den Regionalregierungen als Assessoren bezeichnet, ihre Ämter heißen Assessorate. Auch die Beigeordneten in den Exekutivorganen der Provinzen und Gemeinden tragen diese Bezeichnung.
