The Ministry of Home Affairs guides the retention of allowances for military politicians at the commune level

Mr. Nguyen Van Binh (character's name has been changed) said that according to the direction of the Central Government, allowances for cadres and civil servants after the restructuring of the apparatus will be reserved for a period of 6 months.

However, he was concerned and requested the Ministry of Home Affairs to clarify whether the two types of allowances, including the Commune Military Political Commissar allowance and the District Party Committee Reporter allowance, are reserved or not.

Regarding Mr. Binh's reflection and recommendation, the Ministry of Home Affairs responded on the Electronic Information Portal.

Accordingly, based on Resolution No. 76/2025/QH15 of the National Assembly Standing Committee on the arrangement of administrative units in 2025 and at points 1.1.4 and 1.1.4.4, Clause 1, Section V of Decision No. 759/QD-TTg dated April 14, 2025 of the Prime Minister on approving the project to arrange and reorganize administrative units at all levels and build a model for organizing local government at 2 levels, the Steering Committee for implementing the arrangement and reorganization of administrative units at all levels and building a model for organizing local government at 2 levels of the Government has issued official dispatches: No. 03/CV-BCD dated April 15, 2025, No. 11/CV-BCD dated June 4, 2025 and No. 16/CV-BCD dated August 9, 2025 guiding the implementation (reservation or continuation) of allowances for cadres and civil servants when implementing the arrangement at 2 levels of local government from July 1, 2025.

In particular, Official Dispatch No. 16/CV-BCD has listed the types of allowances applied according to the provisions of law.

Accordingly, current salary allowance regimes include: leadership position allowance; seniority allowance beyond the framework; concurrent allowance; regional allowance; special allowance; attraction allowance; mobile allowance; toxic and dangerous allowance; work responsibility allowance; national defense and security service allowance; seniority allowance; occupational responsibility allowance; preferential allowance according to the profession; special allowance applied to the armed forces; long-term work allowance in areas with particularly difficult socio-economic conditions; public service allowance; allowance for party and political and social work; allowance for responsibility for internal political protection work; allowance for concurrent positions at the commune level.

The organization and implementation of policies for cadres, civil servants and public employees is under the authority of the head of the agency or unit according to the management decentralization.

The Ministry of Home Affairs recommends that Mr. Binh contact the agency managing cadres, civil servants and public employees for answers.
