On the morning of July 5, the 20th session of the Provincial People's Council continued its working session with the important part of discussing socio-economic development contents, difficulties and obstacles in implementing mechanisms and policies at the local level.
Comrades: Vu Xuan Cuong, Standing Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Chairman of the Provincial People's Council; Vu Van Cai, Standing Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Council; Ly Binh Minh, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Council chaired the discussion session.
In addition to the written opinions compiled from the discussion groups, the meeting also received opinions from 8 delegates from the delegation groups of Lao Cai city, Sa Pa town, Bac Ha district, Muong Khuong district, Bao Thang district, and Van Ban district.
At the beginning of the question and answer session, delegate Nguyen Tat Thang, Van Ban District Delegation, mentioned that the budget collection in the province has only reached 36.2%, which is low compared to the estimate assigned by the Provincial People's Council in 2024. He requested the Provincial People's Committee to clarify more fundamental and specific solutions to ensure the completion of the tasks assigned by the Resolution of the Provincial People's Council.
Regarding voters' opinions, delegate Nguyen Tat Thang said that currently many construction investment projects are very slow due to lack of unity in implementation, such as the B1 Road project in Vo Lao commune, which is delayed, affecting the district's budget collection plan.
Delegate Thao Thi Lan, Muong Khuong District Delegation, said that implementing Decision 86/QD-UBND dated January 14, 2022 of the Provincial People's Committee on adjusting the Project to strengthen management of land originating from state-owned agricultural and forestry farms in the province, through review, it was found that many families had long-standing cultivated land but it was determined to be within the scope of the local protective forest management board; many households were cultivating normally, but due to working far away, when they returned, they discovered that the land belonged to the protective forest management board, and the households lost the right to benefit and exploit assets (trees) on that land. The delegate requested that the province direct the removal of obstacles from this Decision so as not to affect the rights of the people.
Delegate Nong Thi Nhi, Delegate Group of Bao Thang District proposed to increase the support level for building cultural houses in villages/residential groups because the old level according to Resolution No. 35 dated December 11, 2015 of the Provincial People's Council is no longer suitable, especially after the number of households in the merged villages has increased. The delegate also proposed to increase the level of support for operating costs for members of smart digital transformation teams in communes and towns. Implementing Resolution No. 20 dated April 17, 2022 of Lao Cai Provincial Party Committee, up to now, Bao Thang has had 14/14 communes and towns in the district launch the smart digital transformation village model with 420 members participating, however, the members have not yet enjoyed support policies and regimes.
Delegate Bui Van Duc, Lao Cai City Delegation, mentioned that according to the General Survey Project approved in Decision 3862/QD-UBND dated December 8, 2014, the investor is the Department of Natural Resources and Environment. On April 16, 2021, the Provincial People's Committee adjusted the task of assigning the City People's Committee to be the investor of the land registration declaration content of the Project. The goal of the Project is to conduct cadastral survey and issue Certificates of land use rights in the city. Up to now, the workload has only stopped at the step of measuring the current status of the land plot; although the land declaration and registration have been carried out, they have not been accepted and the Project has not been finalized.
Regarding the reasons, delegate Bui Van Duc stated that due to the long project implementation period, information on changed land plots was not updated in a timely manner; implementing units were not enthusiastic about the project and did not coordinate with localities to resolve difficulties. The delegate requested the Department of Natural Resources and Environment to study and advise the Provincial People's Committee to direct and resolve difficulties so that the project could be completed soon.
Delegate Vu A Giang, the delegation of Sa Pa town, requested the Provincial People's Committee to direct specialized sectors, with the core being the Department of Education and Training, and localities to organize inspections and assessments of the organization of teaching and learning Vietnamese for ethnic minority children before entering grade 1 in the area in accordance with the regulations of the Ministry of Education and Training.
Delegate Vu A Giang also said that in recent times, in Sa Pa town, the situation of criminal law violations has shown signs of increasing, especially drug crimes, high-tech crimes, and property appropriation, causing confusion for the people. When becoming a victim of money appropriation in the account, the investigation seems to have no results, the need to get back the lost money of the people is hopeless. The delegate requested the authorities to clarify the difficulties and have effective prevention solutions so that the people no longer worry.
Discussing a number of issues related to security and order in the area, delegate Nguyen Anh Chuyen, the delegation of Van Ban district, said: Since the beginning of the year, there have been 40 drug cases in the district with 60 subjects involved, of which 29 cases were related to illegal drug trafficking. Van Ban district also has 488 drug addicts, only more than 1/3 of whom have been sent to compulsory drug rehabilitation. The situation of illegal mineral exploitation, including gold mining, is being resolved by Van Ban district with the most active and drastic measures, thereby significantly curbing this social evil, preventing the emergence of new hotspots.
Participating in the discussion at the hall, delegate Ha Tat Dinh, the delegation of Bac Ha district, stated: In the mountainous district of Bac Ha in 2023, the rate of children under 1 year old fully vaccinated was low, reaching only 48.3% of the target; in the first 6 months of 2024, this figure only reached 22.1%. It is proposed that the Provincial People's Committee make recommendations to the Ministry of Health to ensure the supply of vaccination vaccines.
Delegate Ha Tat Dinh also raised the issue of lack of facilities at educational institutions. This is also one of the reasons why the rate of high school students in the area is still low. Regarding the difficulty in collecting budget in Bac Ha, the delegate pointed out that many mineral exploitation and processing establishments had to stop operating due to expired licenses but had not been reissued. He requested the Provincial People's Committee to direct the acceleration of the progress of mineral exploitation rights auction dossiers and procedures for extending mineral exploitation licenses in the province in general and Bac Ha in particular.
At the discussion, the Standing Committee of the Provincial People's Council fully received all the opinions of the delegates, synthesized the request for the Provincial People's Committee and related sectors to explain, clarify and have solutions.
