Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Hoa Binh, head of the Steering Committee for resolving difficulties and obstacles in stagnant projects (Steering Committee 751), has signed Document No. 117/CV-BCD751 requesting ministries, sectors, and localities to study, review, and propose solutions to remove obstacles in stagnant projects listed in the 751 Database.
The document states that the Government and the Prime Minister have been very determined in directing ministries, sectors, and localities to implement solutions to thoroughly handle stagnant projects, reviving and putting into operation many large-scale projects, thereby contributing to promoting socio-economic development in localities. However, there remain many projects that have not been promptly addressed by authorities, resulting in stagnation and prolonged suspension, causing waste and loss of state and social resources.
Taking full responsibility to the Government and the Prime Minister for any omission or failure to include projects in the report
To further focus on resolving these issues effectively, practically, and conclusively, as well as to complete and put into use the stagnant and long-suspended projects nationwide, Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Hoa Binh requested that ministries, ministerial-level agencies, Government agencies, and the People’s Committees of provinces and centrally-run cities continue to review and update information about projects with difficulties and obstacles on the Steering Committee 751’s Database (751 Database). They must take full responsibility to the Government and the Prime Minister if there are any omissions or failures to include stagnant projects with difficulties and obstacles in the report as required by the Steering Committee 751.
At the same time, ministries, sectors, and localities should carefully study the current legal regulations and specific policies mentioned in the National Assembly’s Resolution No. 170/2024/QH15 dated November 30, 2024. Accordingly, they must promptly review and identify all projects with similar legal situations to those mentioned in Resolution No. 170/2024/QH15, and propose to competent authorities to allow the application of similar mechanisms to resolve them according to specific policy groups in Resolution No. 170/2024/QH15. The consolidated proposal should be sent to the Steering Committee via the 751 Database by August 10, 2025. It is important to note that only projects with difficulties and obstacles that have undergone inspections, audits, and court rulings should be proposed, and the specific clauses suggested for application must be clearly stated. The responsible agencies will be held fully accountable to the Prime Minister if similar difficulties and obstacles arise in projects after this deadline.
The Deputy Prime Minister also requested that for projects that do not fall under the specific policies of Resolution No. 170/2024/QH15, the agencies in charge should carefully review and identify cases where the draft Outline of Solutions of the Steering Committee 751 can be applied to handle stagnant projects. If additional solutions are needed, they should be studied and proposed for each project, ensuring practicality and addressing specific legal obstacles and authority issues.
The review results should be reported to the Steering Committee 751 before August 15, 2025, for consolidation and submission to competent authorities for directives on issuing resolutions regarding mechanisms to address obstacles and difficulties in projects.
Establishing a task force to review and address difficulties and obstacles in long-stalled local projects
The Deputy Prime Minister requested that the People’s Committees of provinces and centrally-run cities establish a task force for reviewing and addressing difficulties and obstacles in long-stalled local projects, under the direct direction of the leaders of the People’s Committees. This task force should study the viewpoints, principles, and legal situations to consider and propose projects that can apply the mechanisms to resolve obstacles and difficulties according to the provisions of Resolution No. 170/2024/QH15 and Conclusion No. 77-KL/TW of the Politburo. They should also build a timely coordination mechanism with the Steering Committee 751 to propose solutions to remove obstacles and difficulties beyond their authority, ensuring progress and accurate data, and reporting the results of the removal in a timely manner to the Prime Minister and the Steering Committee 751.
