The Government Office issued Notice No. 155/TB-VPCP dated April 4, 2025, concluding the conclusion of Deputy Prime Minister Tran Hong Ha, Head of the Central Steering Committee at the online meeting of the Central Steering Committee for national target programs for the period 2021 - 2025 with localities on the implementation status and preparation for the summary of national target programs for the period 2021 - 2025.

However, in the practical implementation of national target programs, there are still some limitations, difficulties and challenges such as: Although the disbursement rate has changed positively, it still does not meet the requirements, especially the disbursement of career capital is still low; there are still target groups that are difficult to complete; some places still have the risk of falling back into poverty; it is difficult to mobilize socialized resources and local counterpart capital to implement national target programs.
Some projects, components, beneficiaries, and support levels are not suitable for the practical situation or have run out of beneficiaries; the rate of communes meeting new rural standards in some regions still has a large gap, there are still poor districts in 04 provinces (Ha Giang, Cao Bang, Bac Kan, Dien Bien) with "no new rural communes" and 04 provinces (Cao Bang, Dien Bien, Quang Binh, Kon Tum) that do not have district-level units recognized for completing the task of building new rural areas; the capacity and sense of responsibility of the staff performing tasks in some localities are still limited; ministries, branches, and localities are focusing mainly on the work of perfecting and arranging the organizational apparatus and administrative units, which somewhat affects the progress of organizing and implementing national target programs; somewhere there is a situation of not wanting to meet new rural standards and not wanting to escape poverty because they are no longer beneficiaries of social security policies on education, health care, insurance, subsidies, etc.
