When examining the North-South high-speed railway project, it was calculated that this project would last for 3 medium-term public investment periods. Therefore, when balancing capital sources, there must be a different mechanism, ensuring the principle of placing this project in the overall ability to balance public investment capital sources.
"The North-South high-speed railway project must be feasible for it to be approved."
On the afternoon of November 30, at the press conference announcing the results of the 8th session of the 15th National Assembly , reporters asked questions about the recent approval of many projects with huge capital, including the North-South high-speed railway project with a total preliminary investment of more than 1.7 million billion VND and two national target programs with investment levels of up to hundreds of thousands of billion VND. These programs will all be implemented in the next 5-10 years.
Emphasizing that these are all large-scale projects, the reporter asked what resources will be used to concentrate all efforts in the coming time.
Standing Member of the Economic Committee Phan Duc Hieu.
Responding, Standing Member of the Economic Committee Phan Duc Hieu shared: "When deciding on projects, in the stage of examining capital sources and capital balancing capabilities, we not only examine individual projects but also consider them in the overall annual public investment, even taking into account the medium term and the public investment period."
For example, the North-South high-speed railway project must take into account that this project will last up to 3 medium-term public investment periods, so when balancing capital sources, there must be a different mechanism, ensuring the principle of placing this project within the overall ability to balance public investment capital sources.
The adopted resolution allows the Government , in the medium term, to balance the allocation of capital sources and submit it to the National Assembly to ensure overall balance, meeting all projects in the same period.
In particular, Mr. Hieu emphasized: "The North-South high-speed railway project must be feasible for it to be approved."
The law clearly stipulates
Also at the press conference, Deputy Chairman of the Committee for Science, Technology and Environment Nguyen Tuan Anh answered questions about how the Law on Geology and Minerals has resolved problems related to mineral exploitation in the area causing environmental pollution, damaging roadbeds and the lack of filling materials for large traffic projects.
According to Mr. Tuan Anh, in addition to the financial obligations that mineral exploitation organizations and individuals must fulfill, this time, the Law on Geology and Minerals has stipulated the responsibility of mineral exploitation organizations and individuals to contribute funds to invest in upgrading infrastructure as well as investing in environmental protection works.
In the recently passed law, there is a provision assigning the Provincial People's Council to decide based on the actual situation to regulate the contribution responsibility of organizations and individuals exploiting minerals in the area.

The Law also assigns the Government to specify in detail a number of contents such as principles for determining collection levels, collection and payment procedures, and management and use of revenue sources to ensure uniformity in collection levels nationwide.
Regarding the question of whether the law can resolve the difficulties in exploiting minerals for filling materials to serve socio-economic development projects, the Vice Chairman of the Committee for Science, Technology and Environment said that the lack of minerals for filling materials is a practical problem. When amending the law, we reviewed this content to adjust it.
In the recently passed law, it is clearly stated in Articles 72 and 73 that there are specific regulations on reforming administrative procedures in licensing, stipulating that it is not necessary to approve investment policies, approve projects, appraise and approve environmental impact assessment report appraisal results, issue environmental licenses, and register the environment.
However, the mining unit must develop a plan to exploit group 4 minerals to submit to the competent state management agency for consideration of granting a mineral exploitation license according to regulations.
Because this is a practical problem, in this law amendment, we have proposed that the content of mineral exploitation for landfill materials will take effect earlier, from January 15, 2025.
