The meeting was chaired by Mr. Tran Cam Tu, Politburo member, Secretary of the Party Central Committee, and Chief of the Central Inspection Committee.

Specifically, following the direction of the Central Steering Committee for Corruption and Negative Behavior Prevention, after examining the results of the inspection for signs of violation and the results of the review, the proposal to discipline the Party Committee of the People’s Committee of Ha Giang and Quang Ngai provinces, the Central Inspection Committee found: The Quang Ngai Provincial Party Committee for the 2010-2015 and 2015-2020 tenures and the Party Committee of the People’s Committee for the 2011-2016 and 2016-2021 tenures violated the principles of concentration of democracy and working regulations.
The Quang Ngai Provincial Party Committee for the 2010-2015 and 2015-2020 tenures and the Party Committee of the People’s Committee for the 2011-2016 and 2016-2021 tenures were irresponsible and lax in their leadership and direction, allowing the People’s Committee and many organizations and individuals to seriously violate the Party’s regulations and the State’s laws in organizing the implementation of a number of projects and packages performed by Phuc Son Joint Stock Group.
Many officials and party members, including key officials of the province, have degenerated in political thought, morality, and lifestyle, violating laws on corruption prevention, regulations on things that party members must not do, and their responsibility to set an example.
The above violations have caused serious consequences, with a high risk of state property loss and waste, causing negative public opinion and reducing the prestige of local party organizations and authorities, to the extent that discipline must be enforced.
The responsibility for the above-mentioned violations and shortcomings belongs to Mr. Le Viet Chu, former member of the Party Central Committee, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Secretary of the Party Committee, and Chairman of the People’s Committee; Mr. Dang Van Minh and Mr. Cao Khoa, former Deputy Secretaries of the Provincial Party Committee, Secretaries of the Party Committee, and Chairmen of the People’s Committee (already expelled from the Party); and Mr. Tran Ngoc Cang, former Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Secretary of the Party Committee, and Chairman of the People’s Committee of Quang Ngai province.
Considering the content, nature, extent, and consequences of the violations, and based on the Party’s regulations, the Central Inspection Committee decided to discipline as follows:
Caution: The Party Committee of the People’s Committee for the 2011-2016 tenure; the Party Committee of the Department of Transport and the Party Committee of the Department of Natural Resources and Environment for the 2010-2015 tenure; and Mr. Tran Ngoc Cang.
Reprimand: The Party Committee of the People’s Committee for the 2016-2021 tenure; the Party Committee of the Management Board of Dung Quat Economic Zone and Quang Ngai Industrial Zones for the 2015-2020 tenure.
The Central Inspection Committee proposed that the competent authority consider disciplining the Quang Ngai Provincial Party Committee for the 2010-2015 and 2015-2020 tenures.
The Central Inspection Committee requested the Quang Ngai Provincial Party Committee to lead and direct the review, consider the responsibility, and discipline the party organizations and members according to the conclusion of the Central Inspection Committee; and promptly rectify the pointed-out violations and shortcomings.
The Central Inspection Committee will continue to inspect, examine, and handle related party organizations and individuals.
