Disciplinary action against director and accountant of Ca Mau Provincial Historical Archives Center

On March 14, according to information from the Department of Home Affairs of Ca Mau province, the Department's Disciplinary Council met and agreed to impose a warning on Mr. Tran Quoc Viet, Director of the Provincial Historical Archives Center (under the Department of Home Affairs) and Ms. Dinh Thi Cam Nhung, accountant of this center.

The director and accountant of the Ca Mau Provincial Historical Archives Center were disciplined for their involvement in the inspection conclusion on the operation, management and use of public assets and financial resources at the center.

Mr. Viet and Ms. Nhung were disciplined in relation to the inspection conclusion on the operation, management and use of public assets and financial resources at the Provincial Historical Archives Center.

Previously, the Inspectorate of Ca Mau province concluded an inspection of the operation, management and use of public assets and financial resources at the Provincial Historical Archives Center.

Specifically, in the 2013-2022 inspection year, the Ca Mau Provincial Historical Archives Center was determined to have received 455 million VND from revenue from companies paying commissions, collective rewards, selling scrap paper... but did not enter the agency fund but established a life fund.

The inspector also pointed out that the Ca Mau Provincial Historical Archives Center did not include accounting books in the system for monitoring and management; did not create revenue and expenditure vouchers; did not do accounting, and did not have financial reports.

The expenditures from this source are not through the agency's collective but are decided by the center's director himself, but there are no records or documents to prove it. According to the inspection conclusion, the above behavior shows signs of illegal fund establishment.

Regarding the amount of money individuals paid back from the document editing fee of 3.6 billion VND, the Inspectorate of Ca Mau province determined that the amount reported by the director of the Ca Mau Provincial Historical Archives Center had been spent to support groups and individuals outside the center of 888 million VND.

Through verification, 1/7 of the collective did not admit to receiving the amount of 8 million VND, and 52/58 individuals did not admit to receiving the amount of 373 million VND.

This shows that the above expenses have no basis to determine that they are completely real. Currently, the above amount of money is no longer in cash and is not shown in the deposit account balance. The inspector believes that this behavior has signs of embezzlement.

The inspection conclusion also stated that the establishment of the living fund was not reflected in the annual internal spending regulations; revenues and expenditures were not approved by the board of directors and not approved by the center's collective.

Currently, the accountant and treasurer of the Ca Mau Provincial Historical Archives Center have lost the signed list of payers, leaving only the data according to the accountant's tracking book.

After the inspection conclusion, the Ca Mau Provincial Inspectorate transferred the case file of the violations that occurred at the Ca Mau Provincial Historical Archives Center to the police investigation agency for clarification.

Currently, Ca Mau Provincial Police have also received the file and have included the case in the report for verification and clarification.
