Solving the bottleneck to collect land use fees in Gia Nghia

More than 100 land records are pending.

By the end of September 2024, the total budget revenue of Gia Nghia City was 216 billion VND, reaching 57% of the estimate assigned by the Provincial People's Council. Of which, revenue from taxes, fees and charges reached a fairly high rate. Particularly, revenue from land use, the locality only achieved 120.4/500 billion VND, reaching 19.3%.

Many land records of the people have not been resolved by Gia Nghia City.

Chairman of Gia Nghia City People's Committee Do Tan Suong emphasized that the revenue from resettlement and land auctions are being implemented by the locality in coordination with other parties.

Revenue from land use conversion has not met the set requirements. Currently, there are 100 land use conversion records of people that have not been resolved.

Part of the reason is that local experts are at fault with the people. Another part is due to the detailed planning. The general planning of Gia Nghia City is 28,000 hectares, while the detailed planning is only 6,400 hectares.

The old public housing land, residential group 4, Nghia Duc ward, Gia Nghia city cannot be auctioned yet due to procedural issues.

“According to regulations, only places that have been planned in detail can change the purpose of use. This is the reason why the land conversion work is delayed,” said Mr. Suong.

According to Mr. Suong, during the implementation process, Gia Nghia City still encountered difficulties in implementing Decision No. 533/QD-UBND on the Land Use Plan for 2024.

Currently, resettlement areas such as: Provincial Police, Provincial Military Command, Department of Construction, Department of Natural Resources and Environment... have not yet decided to hand over to local management.

Therefore, Gia Nghia City People's Committee requested the Department of Natural Resources and Environment to advise the Provincial People's Committee to allow households and individuals to convert land use purposes.

Gia Nghia City collected 120.4 billion VND in land money, including the following sources: 33.9 billion VND from resettlement land allocation; 41.9 billion VND from land use purpose conversion; 31.7 billion VND from land auctions; and 12.9 billion VND from land use fees.

Determination to do

According to Chairman of Gia Nghia City People's Committee Do Tan Suong, the locality is currently accelerating solutions to boost land use revenue. Because if land use revenue is low, the city's 2024 budget revenue will certainly not be completed.

For the auction, the East Bank Resettlement Area has more than 30 lots, with an expected revenue of nearly 150 billion VND. Gia Nghia City has fully handed over to the Land Fund Development Center (Department of Natural Resources and Environment).

As for the public housing area, the auction procedures are being completed. If these two areas are auctioned this year, the land use revenue will be very positive.

Regarding the conversion of land use purposes, Gia Nghia City People's Committee proposed that the Provincial People's Committee decide to reclaim the land assigned to investors and hand it over to Gia Nghia City People's Committee for management. On this basis, the locality will arrange resettlement for households and individuals.

The East Bank resettlement area has about 30 lots, expected to be auctioned for more than 150 billion VND, and will be auctioned at the end of the year.

Regarding revenue from land use, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Le Trong Yen requested Gia Nghia City to urgently build an administrative database to reduce fees and charges for people.

“Why does Gia Nghia City have a lower conversion rate than other districts? Localities need to review the problem to find more effective solutions. First of all, it needs to start from the responsibility of land officials,” Mr. Yen emphasized.

Standing Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Le Van Chien said that Gia Nghia City must be determined to do it. The locality needs to identify the cause. Is there a situation of neglect or lack of determination? If it is not resolved, it will lead to a vicious cycle.

“Gia Nghia City is bold and determined to do it. If land use collection is not completed, the budget will not be met. Once the budget is not met, it will affect many other areas,” affirmed Permanent Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Le Van Chien.
