The implementation of the state budget in 2023, the state budget estimate, the central budget allocation plan for 2024. Mid-term assessment of the implementation of the plans: socio-economic development in 2021 - 2025; economic restructuring in the 2021 - 2025 period; medium-term public investment in the 2021 - 2025 period; national finance and borrowing and repayment of public debt for 5 years in the 2021 - 2025 period.

Government report on piloting a number of specific mechanisms and policies for the development of Da Nang city. Results of the review of the system of legal documents according to the provisions of Resolution No. 101/2023/QH15 on the 5th Session of the 15th National Assembly.
Discussing in groups, many delegates assessed that, in the face of great difficulties and challenges, the Party, State, National Assembly and Government have provided timely, focused and effective leadership and direction, in line with many major policies and decisions. After half a term, our country has basically steadfastly overcome difficulties and challenges and achieved many important and quite comprehensive results, creating a foundation for socio-economic development, promoting growth, enhancing competitiveness in the medium and long term; continuing to be a bright spot in the global economy.
However, economic growth still faces many challenges; macroeconomic stability is not really solid due to the impact of external factors. In 2023, many key growth drivers will slow down and face many difficulties.
Analyzing some factors causing impacts, difficulties and assessing the regional and world situation, President Vo Van Thuong pointed out some causes leading to limitations and obstacles. According to the President, the decentralization and delegation of power have not achieved high results, are not clear, and have not encouraged the responsibility of agencies, organizations and individuals in the political system.
"The Party's conclusion stated that it is necessary to promote decentralization and clear and transparent delegation of power in the direction that each level must clearly define its authority and responsibility, so that subordinates do not ask superiors about their own matters and so that superiors do not have to reach down to do the work of subordinates. When it is necessary to ask, the answer must be clear and transparent. But we have not been able to do this," said the President.
The next reason pointed out by the President is that the responsibility in drafting legal documents is still low. In addition, there is a situation where officials avoid and fear responsibility...
Discussing in groups, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh spent a lot of time discussing with delegates issues related to development investment and climate change response in the Mekong Delta region.
According to the Prime Minister, the landslides in the provinces and cities of the Mekong Delta region are a major problem. We must not only solve the immediate problems but also build large, long-term projects to prevent negative impacts on the region. This is one of the important tasks identified by the Government. In particular, the projects that need to be implemented are to prevent landslides, subsidence, salinity and climate change. This requires promoting international cooperation and mobilizing resources. Internationally funded projects need to be invested in a focused and key manner.
“If we borrow, we must do big projects, turn things around, and change the status, not do them in small, fragmented ways. Instead of spreading ourselves thin, we should do big things like preventing subsidence, landslides, saltwater intrusion, and climate change,” Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh noted.
