The Ministry of Home Affairs proposed 1 task to be transferred to 2026, which is the task of demarcating the management boundaries of seas and islands for 21 coastal provinces and cities (after merging provinces and cities).

After listening to the report assessing the implementation of tasks and opinions of the leaders of the Ministry of Home Affairs, units under the Ministry, and representatives of the Government Office, Deputy Prime Minister Pham Thi Thanh Tra acknowledged that the Ministry of Home Affairs has shown great determination to complete the remaining tasks of 2025. Implementing the Deputy Prime Minister's conclusion from November 2025 to present, the Ministry has made great efforts in building a system of decrees and has so far submitted 4 decrees to the Government for promulgation.

However, the Deputy Prime Minister also frankly pointed out that some units under and directly under the Ministry have not been resolutely focused, so some tasks are still delayed and have not achieved the goals and tasks according to the general direction of the Government and the Deputy Prime Minister.

Emphasizing that the remaining workload for 2025 is still very heavy, and if not calculated day by day, it cannot be completed, the Deputy Prime Minister requested that the Ministry must have a very close, specific, drastic and effective working method.

Expressing sympathy with the Minister of Home Affairs when the Ministry's workload is very large and wide, in the fields of state and social organization, including core tasks in the social field such as labor, employment, social insurance, the scope of influence of the Ministry is very large, the Deputy Prime Minister said that if the working method is not changed, that workload will not be completed.

The Deputy Prime Minister requested the Ministry of Home Affairs to closely coordinate with ministries, the Government Office and within the units under the ministry when building the document system.

“It is necessary to change the coordination method to ensure better requirements, especially when the tasks are at their peak. The remaining time is considered a campaign. If we are not quick, decisive, and highly focused, we will not be able to complete the work,” the Deputy Prime Minister stated.

Deputy Prime Minister Pham Thi Thanh Tra also asked the Minister of Home Affairs to directly monitor every day, and the Deputy Ministers to directly preside over and take primary responsibility for the areas they are assigned to, and proactively roll up their sleeves to get the work done.

The Deputy Prime Minister stated that the most important goal is to prioritize the completion of 27 decrees, prepare for the 11th National Patriotic Emulation Congress, summarize 5 years of implementing Resolution No. 76/NQ-CP of the Government on the overall program of state administrative reform for the 2021-2030 period, focus on presiding over and coordinating to resolve difficulties and problems in the operation of two-level local governments and reorganize ministries, ministerial-level agencies, and government agencies.

Note that December is the "sprint" time of 2025, the Deputy Prime Minister assigned the completion progress for each specific group of decrees, requesting that from this time division, the Minister of Home Affairs will base on that to assign specific tasks to each unit and each leader in charge, meeting the progress requirements.

Regarding the important and urgent political task group of December 2025, which is the National Patriotic Emulation Congress, the Deputy Prime Minister said that next week he will review the preparation work, review the documentary film and program script; and requested the Minister of Home Affairs to closely monitor and urge the preparation so that the Congress can be organized thoughtfully, with quality and impression.

Regarding the organization of the apparatus and the two-level local government, Deputy Prime Minister Pham Thi Thanh Tra requested the Ministry to take the lead in urging and removing difficulties and obstacles in decentralization and delegation of power. The Ministry of Home Affairs must take the lead in guiding localities to remove obstacles, closely follow the situation, and focus on resolving any problems.
