With the drastic participation of the entire political system and the consensus of the people, the work of compensation, support, resettlement and site clearance has achieved positive results, however, the progress of site handover in some localities is still slow compared to the general level of the province.
On behalf of the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee, Standing Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee Tran The Dung has just signed a document directing the acceleration of compensation, support, resettlement, site clearance and ensuring material sources for the construction of the North-South Expressway Project in the East phase 2021 - 2025 through Ha Tinh province. |
The North-South expressway project, Dien Chau - Bai Vot section, is being accelerated by the contractor.
The North-South Eastern Expressway Project for the 2021-2025 period is a large-scale, key and urgent project that the National Assembly and the Government are interested in directing and prioritizing resources for implementation. The Government has issued Resolution No. 18/NQ-CP dated February 11, 2022 directing the implementation of the Project; The Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee has issued Directive No. 21-CT/TU dated April 20, 2022 on strengthening leadership and direction in implementing the North-South Eastern Expressway Project for the 2021-2025 period through Ha Tinh province, focusing on compensation, support, resettlement and site clearance.
In the past time, with the drastic participation of the entire political system and the consensus of the people, up to now, the work of compensation, support, resettlement, and site clearance has achieved positive results: the work of counting and approving the compensation plan has reached 99.07%, the site handover has reached 98.04%; some localities have completed the handover of 100% of the site, such as Duc Tho district and Ky Anh town.
In addition to some achieved results, the progress of site handover in some localities is still slow compared to the general level of the province; there are still 265/404 resettled households that have not been relocated (Can Loc 80/146 households, Thach Ha 68/77 households, Ha Tinh city 7/9 households, Cam Xuyen 51/88 households, Ky Anh district 26/68 households); only 8/30 resettlement areas have been completed, while 22/30 resettlement areas are under construction; the progress of relocation of power grid infrastructure works is still slow; no locality has completed the appraisal of the dossier for relocation of 220kV and 500kV power lines at the Ministry of Industry and Trade; 6/11 mineral mines for common construction materials serving the project have not completed the agreement on compensation and site clearance; procedures for changing the purpose of forest use at mines with forests are still facing many difficulties.
The above achievements are noteworthy and commendable, however, they still do not ensure the progress according to the Government's direction (100% completion of site handover in the second quarter of 2023). In addition to objective reasons such as: procedures for appraising dossiers for relocation of power grid infrastructure works, procedures for converting forest use purposes, reforestation, organizing forest recovery, converting land use purposes, and leasing land must go through many steps, requiring opinions from many levels and many sectors; the land fund for reforestation of the whole province is not enough... then the subjective reason is that some localities and units are still lacking in determination in directing, operating, and implementing.
To ensure the progress of the implementation of the North-South Expressway Project in the Eastern phase 2021-2025 through Ha Tinh province according to the direction of the Government, the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee requests Party committees at all levels, authorities, departments, branches, sectors, and socio-political organizations at all levels to continue to focus on leading and directing the good implementation of related contents.
Specifically, it is necessary to continue to promote the propaganda, dissemination and legal education on the Project's investment objectives, compensation, support and resettlement policies so that people clearly understand and fully perceive the responsibilities and obligations of each cadre, party member and people of all walks of life, creating consensus in coordinating the implementation of the Project, especially households and individuals who must be resettled; households and individuals located in the area approved by the Provincial People's Committee to exploit materials for the Project have not agreed on the compensation and support plan. Strengthen inspection and supervision of the implementation of the Party's guidelines and policies, the State's policies and laws on compensation and site clearance for the Project.
Localities that have not completed site clearance should urgently speed up the approval of compensation, support, site clearance, resettlement plans and relocate technical infrastructure works in accordance with regulations. Regarding the relocation of 220kV and 500kV power lines, localities and investors should urgently follow up and work with the Ministry of Industry and Trade to speed up the handling process, complete the appraisal work, and promptly carry out the relocation of works to ensure site handover according to the project implementation schedule.
For material mines that have not completed site clearance, promptly coordinate, guide and support investors and mine owners in negotiating compensation and support with households to clear the site of the mine area, promptly provide construction materials for the Project. Complete the conversion of forest use purposes, reforestation, organize forest recovery, change land use purposes, and lease land according to regulations. Inspect and supervise the use of material mines for the right purposes, ensure labor safety, and protect the environment; promptly prevent speculative profiteering, price increases, and unreasonable price pressure in the province.
Continue to strengthen coordination and information exchange between departments, branches, localities and Project Management Boards (investors), promptly advise and propose solutions and remove difficulties and obstacles during the implementation process.
Strengthen the inspection and supervision of the implementation of the Party's guidelines and policies, the State's policies and laws on compensation, resettlement and site clearance for the Project. Organize dialogues, mobilize, explain and promptly resolve people's petitions and complaints related to compensation, support and resettlement for the Project in accordance with regulations; do not allow complaints and lawsuits to go beyond the level of authority; strictly handle subjects who take advantage of the project implementation to incite, entice and destabilize the situation in the area.
Assign the Party Committee of the Provincial People's Committee to direct the Provincial People's Committee to develop a specific plan and schedule, assign responsibilities to departments, branches, sectors and localities to effectively implement the above contents, and periodically report to the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee on the implementation results. |
