National Assembly Chairman Tran Thanh Man said that localities must be very determined to make sure that there are few people but the running is enough.

Few people but having to run

On October 21, the 10th Session of the 15th National Assembly continued the discussion session in groups on socio-economics.

Giving opinions in the group, Politburo member and National Assembly Chairman Tran Thanh Man said that in just a short time, we have completed the arrangement at the central level and the arrangement at the local level.

Accordingly, 63 provinces and cities will be merged, 696 district-level units will be terminated, and 10,035 communes will be merged with 3,321 communes. This is a huge amount of work, which is highly appreciated and appreciated by international and foreign public opinion.

However, according to the National Assembly Chairman, currently, the clear determination of functions and tasks at all levels is still not synchronous, still overlapping or lacking responsibility. Some documents violating the law and administrative procedures have not been adjusted in a timely manner, causing difficulties in daily operations.

It is clear that now in the locality, we are still limited in the fields of land, construction, environment, real estate, justice, and civil status. Although each commune of us has a public administrative center, the National Assembly Chairman stated the reality.

The Politburo directed the National Assembly Party Committee and the Government Party Committee to continue reviewing and adjusting this issue.

The National Assembly Chairman added that regarding the shortage of departments, the central government is also flexible, in the condition that a new headquarters has not been built, there are no conditions, there may be Party committees, People's committees here and there, People's Committees there... But it is necessary to transform digitally, digitize, and apply artificial intelligence (AI) to complete the work.

Citing that the 9th Session passed 34 laws and amended the Constitution, if there is no digital transformation and no application of artificial intelligence, it cannot be passed, the National Assembly Chairman said: "I request that provinces and localities must be very determined to make sure that there are few people but the work is running".

Restructuring the economy in a comprehensive and substantial manner

Providing upcoming solutions, the National Assembly Chairman said that the Government, the Ministry of Home Affairs, and localities will implement synchronous solutions, focusing on administrative reform and improving capacity to support resources.

The legal framework and implementation instructions must be completed. The basic law is complete, the rest are decrees and circulars guiding implementation. Adjust the staffing, review the capacity of cadres to assign appropriately, limit part-time jobs outside of professional expertise.

At the same time, urgently establish public service units to provide basic public services in the commune. We must invest in infrastructure and technology. Prioritize investment in information technology infrastructure and server upgrades.

According to the National Assembly Chairman, from now until the end of the year, all investment resources need to be used to upgrade headquarters, especially in communes. At the same time, it is necessary to urgently disburse public investment. Focus on growth but must be sustainable and of good quality. The State must control the financial market, real estate, gold prices, and dollar prices.

The National Assembly Chairman believes that stabilizing the macro economy is the greatest solution, ensuring growth, stabilizing the macro economy, along with inflationary regimes and social security concerns.

We must innovate the growth model from breadth to depth, promote digital transformation, develop a green economy, and a knowledge economy. At the same time, continue to restructure the economy in a comprehensive and practical manner.
