(NLDO)- According to the Ministry of Finance, a general inventory of public assets will be conducted nationwide to combat waste.
The implementation of the general inventory project nationwide aims to serve the development of strategies and plans for socio-economic development; serve the reporting of the management and use of public assets, provide information for the preparation of state financial reports, reports on thrift practice, and anti-wastefulness according to the provisions of law.
This information was announced by Mr. Nguyen Tan Thinh, Director of the Department of Public Asset Management (Ministry of Finance), at a press conference on the afternoon of December 18. According to Mr. Thinh, the inventory also aims to grasp the current status of public assets at agencies, organizations, units, infrastructure assets invested and managed by the State in terms of quantity, value, structure, current status of use, etc. as a basis for perfecting policies and laws on management and use of public assets.
Mr. Nguyen Tan Thinh chaired the press conference.
Recently, the Ministry of Finance has reviewed the law, conducted field surveys, developed forms and inventory indicators, and conducted trial inventories at 2 ministries including the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Transport; and 6 localities including: Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, Hai Phong, Bac Kan, and Quang Ninh.
According to the Department of Public Asset Management, the General Inventory under Decision No. 213 of the Prime Minister this time is a major task, the first time a General Inventory is conducted on a large scale nationwide, with the subjects of the inventory being about 100,000 units and many different types of assets, the time of the General Inventory coincides with the time of many major events of the country.
Meanwhile, the awareness of some Party committees, authorities, heads of agencies, organizations and units is not complete, and they are not proactive and determined in directing, operating and organizing implementation.
This inventory of public assets takes place at a time when the organization and apparatus are being reorganized and streamlined; administrative units at the district and commune levels are being rearranged in many localities. According to Mr. Nguyen Tan Thinh, this will more or less affect the inventory of public assets.
Specifically, the units that are required to conduct public asset inventories at this time may belong to this Ministry or agency, but after implementing the merger and streamlining project, they may belong to other ministries or agencies. This will have a certain impact on the public asset inventory work that is being carried out.
Realizing this early, Mr. Nguyen Tan Thinh said that the Ministry of Finance has issued instructions for ministries, branches and agencies to conduct asset inventories in case of mergers, consolidations, termination of operations or transfer of functions and tasks to other agencies. The Ministry of Finance also instructed old units to inventory all public assets before transferring to the new management agency, and transfer all inventory records to the new management agency after the merger or consolidation to continue implementing unfinished work.
According to the Director of the Department of Public Asset Management, based on the public asset inventory reports of ministries, branches and localities, the Ministry of Finance will re-examine and re-evaluate the statistical data. At the same time, the general inventory will be linked to the implementation of anti-waste.
"The Ministry of Finance has proposed that the Prime Minister direct that during the general inventory process, if there are surplus assets that are not used or assets are used for the wrong purpose, they must be reported to the competent authority for handling immediately during the inventory process, without waiting until the end of the entire inventory process to report," Mr. Thinh stated.
According to the plan, assets to be inventoried include: Public assets at agencies, organizations, and units as prescribed in the Law on Management and Use of Public Assets that meet the standards of fixed assets (except for special assets at units of the People's Armed Forces, assets on the list of state secrets).
Infrastructure assets invested and managed by the State include: Transport infrastructure assets: railways, roads, aviation, inland waterways, maritime; clean water supply infrastructure, irrigation infrastructure, commercial infrastructure such as markets, industrial cluster infrastructure, industrial parks, economic zone infrastructure, high-tech park infrastructure, concentrated information technology park infrastructure...
According to the Department of Public Asset Management, by December 31, 2024, the preparation work for the general inventory of public assets at agencies, organizations, units and infrastructure assets invested and managed by the State will be completed.
By March 31, 2025, the inventory of the subjects performing the inventory will be completed. By June 15, 2025, ministries, branches and localities will report to the Ministry of Finance. By July 31, 2025, the Ministry of Finance will complete the synthesis of the inventory results, develop a summary report on public assets at agencies, organizations, units, infrastructure assets invested and managed by the State nationwide, and report to the Government and the Prime Minister.
