Prevent waste, contribute to unlocking resources, promote economic growth
In recent times, under the leadership of the Party, the close supervision of the National Assembly, the drastic, close and timely direction and management of the Government, the work of preventing and combating waste has achieved important results, contributing to achieving and surpassing most of the socio-economic development goals and targets over the terms, even in the context of unprecedented challenges such as epidemics and natural disasters; mobilizing, managing and effectively using human resources, material resources, financial resources, ensuring national defense, security, foreign affairs and social security.
However, reality shows that the work of preventing and combating waste in many areas still exists and is limited, typically the mechanism for allocating and disbursing public investment capital is still inadequate, reducing the efficiency of using state resources; the management and use of public assets still has many limitations; mechanisms, policies and legal regulations are still overlapping, not synchronized, and have not been promptly resolved; the labor market develops slowly, labor, salary and social security policies are not complete, and there are many shortcomings in implementation; attracting and using talents is not effective, there is a shortage of high-quality human resources, etc.
To overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings and limitations, strictly implement the Party's guidelines and policies, legal regulations, and directions of the Government and the Prime Minister on waste prevention and control, contributing to unlocking resources and promoting economic growth, the Prime Minister requests Ministers, Heads of ministerial-level agencies, Government agencies, and other central agencies (hereinafter referred to as ministries and central agencies), Chairmen of People's Committees of provinces and centrally-run cities (hereinafter referred to as localities) to focus on resolutely and effectively implementing the following tasks and solutions:

The Prime Minister requested ministries, central and local agencies to identify waste prevention and control as a common task of the entire political system, requiring the participation and responsible contribution of all ministries, branches and localities.
The work of preventing and combating waste must be clearly demonstrated through commitments, plans, with progress, specific targets, focusing on thoroughly solving the causes of waste and must be carried out regularly. The implementation plan must ensure 5 clarity (clear people, clear work, clear progress, clear responsibility, clear results).
Linking the results from waste prevention and control work with the implementation of the economic growth target of 8% or more by 2025 and double-digit economic growth in the period 2026 - 2030; identifying the results obtained from waste prevention and control work as an important resource, contributing to promoting growth drivers to implement the economic growth target alongside other traditional growth drivers.

The Prime Minister assigned ministries and central agencies to urgently develop and complete detailed regulations and guidance documents for the Laws and Resolutions passed by the 15th National Assembly at the 9th Extraordinary Session and the 2024 Ordinance on Litigation Costs.
In addition, review to amend and supplement regulations on socio-economic management mechanisms, economic and technical norms that are no longer suitable to the country's development practices; focus on areas prone to waste such as: state budget management, public assets; management and use of public investment capital; management of state capital invested in enterprises; construction; land, resources (including renewable resources), minerals, energy; credit, banking; organizational structure, human resource management, etc.

The Ministry of Finance coordinates with the Government Office to closely monitor, synthesize periodic reports, and promptly propose measures to handle units and individuals who are late or do not seriously implement.

The Prime Minister requested ministries, central and local agencies to thoroughly implement the task of radical reform, minimizing administrative procedures and compliance costs for people and businesses.
Promote decentralization and delegation of authority, combined with strengthening supervision, inspection and supervision in handling administrative procedures to reduce intermediary levels, ending the situation of prolonging the handling time through many agencies and units.

Ministries, central and local agencies need to accelerate the application of digital technology, artificial intelligence (AI), and big data in management and supervision; at the same time, synchronize digital infrastructure and connect data systems between agencies to avoid the situation where each unit operates a separate system, leading to data fragmentation, causing difficulties in information management and exploitation.
Strengthening coordination between ministries, branches and localities in waste prevention and control
The Prime Minister requested to strengthen coordination mechanisms, share data, and build interconnected processing procedures between ministries, sectors, and localities to ensure that waste and negative cases are detected and handled promptly. At the same time, there needs to be a close monitoring mechanism between government levels to avoid group interests, cover-up of violations, and affecting the effectiveness of state management.
Inspection, auditing and investigation agencies must coordinate closely and proactively intervene as soon as signs of violations are detected, not allowing them to drag on, causing waste and public outrage.
The Prime Minister assigned the Ministry of Finance to preside over monitoring, urging, and inspecting the implementation of this Directive, promptly reporting to the Prime Minister on arising issues beyond its authority as prescribed.
