Opening the meeting, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh pointed out that the Party and State pay special attention to the work of preventing and combating waste, which is one of the important factors to increase the strength of resources, ensure social security, promote development, and enrich the country, especially in the new revolutionary period.
The Politburo issued a directive on strengthening the Party's leadership in the work of practicing thrift and combating waste. After the 10th Central Conference, the Central Steering Committee on preventing and combating corruption and negativity was strengthened, supplemented with the function of preventing and combating waste and renamed the Central Steering Committee on preventing and combating corruption, waste and negativity.
Implementing resolutions, directives, and conclusions of the Central Committee, the Politburo, the Secretariat, and directions of General Secretary To Lam, the Government has recently issued many directives and taken drastic actions to remove difficulties and obstacles, and resolve bottlenecks that cause waste of economic resources.
In particular, the Government has established a Steering Committee to review and remove difficulties and obstacles related to institutions and mechanisms; resolve bottlenecks that cause waste of economic resources, especially removing difficulties and obstacles related to land and renewable energy projects, strengthening management, improving the efficiency of housing and land use at state-owned enterprises, compulsorily transferring 4 weak commercial banks, handling all 12 loss-making and ineffective projects of the industry and trade sector in the past...
The work that has been done recently has achieved positive results, initially contributing to fighting waste.
However, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh said that, besides the achieved results, there is still much work to be done because waste occurs quite commonly in many different forms and forms, causing many serious consequences for development, especially in areas such as financial management, credit, public assets, public investment, land, mineral resources, state capital management in enterprises, labor management and working time...
According to the Prime Minister, the above limitations are one of the causes of the decline in human resources, financial resources, reduced production efficiency, increased cost burden, resource depletion, and widening the gap between rich and poor; waste also causes a decline in people's trust in the Party and State, creates invisible barriers in socio-economic development, and misses development opportunities for the country.
Therefore, the Government has established a Steering Committee for Waste Prevention to resolve and completely handle bottlenecks that cause loss and waste of economic resources, creating new changes with strong spillover effects for this work.
The Prime Minister requested the Steering Committee to review the work that has been implemented, the results achieved, the difficulties, limitations and causes, and draw lessons to serve as a basis for proposing tasks and solutions for the coming time; especially removing difficulties and obstacles for long-standing backlog projects to promptly resolve them, freeing up resources for the economy.
Along with that, the members of the Steering Committee are requested to propose the expected activities in 2025 of the ministries and branches under their charge, the tasks and solutions that need to be focused on implementing, and to exchange and discuss methods to continue promoting the role of the established steering committees in parallel with the activities of the Steering Committee on Waste Prevention and Control.
Sharing concerns when witnessing many unfinished projects lasting for a long time in many localities, causing many consequences, the Prime Minister asked the delegates to look straight at the truth, focus on discussing and correctly assessing the situation, proposing tasks and solutions to prevent and combat waste in all sectors and fields, from the central to the grassroots levels, including the arrangement of assets and facilities, avoiding waste in the process of arranging the organization of the political system.
Along with that, the Prime Minister asked the members of the Steering Committee to propose the expected activities in 2025 of the ministries and branches under their charge, the tasks and solutions that need to be focused on implementing, and to exchange and discuss methods to continue promoting the role of the established steering committees in parallel with the activities of the Steering Committee on Waste Prevention and Control.
