Dung Quat - Sa Huynh coastal road project (Quang Ngai) has land clearance problems.

The People's Committee of Quang Ngai province has just issued a document responding to voters' questions about the handling of projects that have not been implemented or are behind schedule. Accordingly, currently, for projects that have been allocated land or leased land but have not been implemented or are behind schedule, the People's Committee of Quang Ngai province has directed the Department of Natural Resources and Environment, People's Committees of districts, towns and cities to review and advise the Provincial People's Committee to consider and handle them according to regulations.

Some projects have not been allocated land or leased land due to legal problems (focused on the agricultural sector). The Department of Natural Resources and Environment is coordinating with the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development to determine the feasibility of accessing land and advise the Provincial People's Committee to handle it according to regulations.

Meanwhile, the Department of Planning and Investment is continuing to strengthen investment monitoring and evaluation; reviewing projects that are behind schedule and advising the Provincial People's Committee to handle them according to regulations. In particular, for projects that investors are still actively implementing, the Department of Planning and Investment will guide investors to carry out procedures to submit to competent authorities for consideration and adjustment of project progress according to investment laws to have a basis for implementing other related procedures.

For projects where investors are slow to implement and procrastinate, current investment laws cannot adjust progress. In the past, the Department of Planning and Investment has worked with investors to voluntarily terminate the project, but investors have not agreed, and investment laws do not have sufficient basis to terminate the project.

Currently, the Ministry of Planning and Investment is consulting with competent authorities to promulgate the Law amending and supplementing a number of articles of the Investment Law, including a draft regulation amending and supplementing Article 48 of the Investment Law 2020 on the termination of investment projects. Therefore, after competent authorities promulgate the above regulations, the Department of Planning and Investment will review and advise the Provincial People's Committee to handle each specific project, ensuring strictness and compliance with current legal regulations.

According to the People's Committee of Quang Ngai province, in recent times, the Department of Planning and Investment has always proactively reviewed, urged and warned investors whose projects are not being implemented on schedule. After reviewing, in some cases where investors are slow to implement, the Department of Planning and Investment has presided over and coordinated with local authorities and relevant agencies to review and base on investment laws to advise the Provincial People's Committee to promptly handle. Specifically, from 2021 to present, the Provincial People's Committee has terminated the legal validity of investment policies and revoked 61 projects that are not being implemented on schedule.
