Comrades: Hau A Lenh, Member of the Party Central Committee, Minister, Chairman of the Ethnic Committee, Deputy Head of the Central Steering Committee for the National Target Programs for the period 2021-2025; Y Vinh Tor, Alternate Member of the Party Central Committee, Deputy Minister, Deputy Head of the Ethnic Committee; Nguyen Lam Thanh, Vice Chairman of the National Assembly's Ethnic Council; Nguyen Huy Dung, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Chairman of the Thai Nguyen Provincial People's Committee co-chaired the Conference. Attending the Conference were leaders of ministries, branches, localities; Steering Committee for the National Target Programs 1719 of the Northern provinces.
According to the report of the Central Steering Committee for National Target Programs presented by Deputy Minister, Vice Chairman of the Ethnic Minorities Committee Y Vinh Tor at the Conference, with the strong direction of the Government, the Prime Minister and the Head of the Central Steering Committee; the great efforts, determination and proactive coordination of the Program's host agency with ministries, central agencies, and members of the Working Group, up to now, the central level has basically completed the task of developing and promulgating documents regulating and guiding the implementation of the National Target Program 1719.
Although the National Target Program 1719 was officially implemented from the second half of 2022, thanks to the efforts and proactiveness of many localities in the area in organizing implementation and integrating resources from other programs and projects in the province, some targets are estimated to have been completed by December 31, 2024, exceeding the assigned plan targets such as: The poverty reduction rate in ethnic minority areas of 19 provinces in the region has all been completed and exceeded the assigned targets, in which some localities have exceeded the targets assigned by the Prime Minister at a high level such as: Lao Cai, Yen Bai, Quang Ninh ...; The rate of villages with paved car roads to the center; The rate of ethnic minorities using hygienic water; The rate of primary, secondary and high school age students going to school; The rate of villages with community houses; Percentage of villages with traditional cultural and artistic teams (Clubs) that operate regularly and with quality; Percentage of women giving birth at medical facilities or with the support of medical staff; Percentage of pregnant women receiving regular check-ups.
Early completion of some of the above targets is both a driving force for socio-economic development, hunger eradication and poverty reduction for the people, and at the same time helps localities allocate resources for other more difficult goals that require a higher level of concentration and longer implementation time.
On the other hand, with the Resolutions of the National Assembly, Resolutions, Decisions of the Government, the Prime Minister and Circulars, guiding documents of ministries, central agencies, directives and management documents of localities in the provinces of ethnic minorities and mountainous areas have been issued promptly. In a short time, the system of guiding documents has been built, revised and supplemented, removing many difficulties and obstacles in policy mechanisms, ensuring that localities have a full legal basis and favorable conditions in organizing and implementing the National Target Programs, including the Program. This is the reason contributing to promoting the disbursement of implementation capital sources, especially public investment capital sources, in accordance with the policies and directions of the Government and the Prime Minister. The Central Steering Committee also resolutely directed the ministries, central branches and localities to urgently and seriously organize the implementation with the highest political determination to basically complete the goals and targets assigned by the National Assembly.
Therefore, the results of disbursement of public investment capital to implement the National Target Program 1719 in the provinces of ethnic minorities and mountainous areas in the North have had many positive changes. The overall disbursement results of the localities are higher than the overall disbursement results of public investment capital of the whole country and other National Target Programs.
In addition to the achieved results, the work of reviewing, developing and promulgating a number of regulations on management and implementation of the Program in some localities is still slow. The promulgation of policy mechanisms under the authority of localities is still delayed because many localities are still confused and have different understandings in the process of researching and implementing the guiding documents of the Central level. The allocation of capital in the spirit of Resolution No. 111/2024/QH15 of some localities is still slow, not meeting the requirements on time progress. Many localities have difficulty in balancing counterpart resources from the local budget to implement the Program because most of them are provinces with low budget revenue, largely dependent on the support of the Central budget. The integration of capital to implement the National Target Programs and the capital settlement process of localities are still confusing. Capital disbursement has many changes; however, the disbursement results are not as expected, especially the career capital...
