Representatives from Hanoi city stated that the city has approved several handling options, such as relocating headquarters, converting functions for cultural, sports, and public purposes; handing over to central government agencies; transferring to public service units for management; or reclaiming the land to be handed over to the Department of Natural Resources and Environment for processing according to regulations. Hanoi has also basically completed equipping the newly reorganized administrative units with necessary vehicles and machinery.

Deputy Minister of Finance Do Thanh Trung requested that localities closely coordinate with the Department of Public Assets Management to promptly resolve any difficulties and obstacles that arise, ensuring the early completion of the arrangement, allocation, and handling of offices and land after the reorganization of administrative units. From December 2025, the Ministry of Finance will publicly disclose the progress of handling surplus offices as required by the Prime Minister.
