According to the decision, the Department of Natural Resources and Environment will act as the standing agency of the task force, with Mr. Nguyen Toan Thang, Director of the Department, appointed as the head. Mr. Huynh Thanh Khiet, Deputy Director of the Department of Construction, will serve as the vice head. The task force will also comprise 12 members from relevant departments, sectors, and agencies in the city.

The task force’s primary mission is to conduct a comprehensive review and compile statistics on commercial housing areas and projects in the city that have been granted investment licenses and are in use but have not yet received land use rights certificates.

It will identify the causes and obstacles leading to the delay in issuing these certificates, categorize and classify the projects, and propose and implement solutions to address the issues according to a well-defined plan, timeline, and roadmap.

Additionally, the group will provide consultations to the Ho Chi Minh City People’s Committee to ensure consistent, unified, and coordinated direction across the city, including the Thu Duc city area, to resolve any challenges associated with granting land use rights certificates to homebuyers.

They will also advise on developing applications and websites to disclose information about commercial housing projects periodically. This will enable citizens to access details about previously licensed projects, their investment and construction scales, any mortgage involvements with credit institutions, violations of construction regulations, delays in submitting certificate-related documents, additional financial obligations, and project obstacles impacting the certificate issuance process. Information on the progress of resolving these challenges will also be made available.
