The Ministry of Construction said that the above constructions were not built according to planning, were built without permission, were built without permission, did not meet fire prevention and fighting standards, and were arbitrarily designed to add floors and arrange houses into many apartments for the purpose of renting, buying, selling, transferring...
This has led to many consequences such as: increasing population density, overloading the technical infrastructure system, social infrastructure, traffic infrastructure, not ensuring environmental sanitation, affecting the security and order situation of the locality, disrupting planning, disputes and lawsuits between buyers and sellers due to failure to issue ownership certificates..., especially violating regulations on fire prevention and fighting, leading to a high risk of fire and explosion in the community, typically the fire at house number 37, alley 29/70 Khuong Ha street (Khuong Dinh ward, Thanh Xuan district, Hanoi ), causing very serious damage to people and property.

On that basis, the Ministry of Construction requests the People's Committees of provinces and centrally run cities to direct the Department of Construction to coordinate with local authorities to urgently review all completed multi-storey and multi-apartment individual housing projects to detect violations of construction order, especially violations of fire prevention and fighting; have solutions to separate parking areas from residential areas and have separate escape routes; invest in appropriate fire prevention and fighting equipment; arrange healthy and experienced people to manage and operate the building.
At the same time, strictly handle violations of relevant organizations and individuals according to the provisions of law.
For the above-mentioned projects, when constructing new ones, local competent authorities must strictly control compliance with legal regulations on planning, construction, fire prevention and fighting, management of construction licensing, quality management, and construction order management according to regulations.
The standards for detached housing are very clear.
The Ministry of Construction said that the law on housing has stipulated: individual houses are designed and built with two or more apartments in a closed style (with separate living rooms, separate kitchens, toilets, and bathrooms), with a minimum floor area of each apartment of at least 30 square meters or more, and the construction, repair, and renovation of these houses must comply with the provisions of the law on construction. Including criteria suitable for the purpose of land use according to land use planning; ensuring safety for the construction; meeting environmental requirements, fire and explosion prevention, ensuring safety of technical infrastructure; having a design that complies with standards and regulations, meeting requirements on functionality, ensuring safety during use, etc.
