According to the report of the Department of Finance, the total public investment capital plan for 2025 (including the capital plan for 2024 carried over) of the province is 12,265,861 billion VND, of which 12,263,561 billion VND has been assigned in detail, equal to 99.9% of the capital plan. As of November 20, the disbursed public investment capital plan for 2025 reached 6,564,576 billion VND, equal to 53.5% of the capital plan.

In addition to the achieved results, the implementation of the 2025 public investment plan is facing difficulties related to construction materials and the impact of extreme weather conditions.

Representative of the Department of Finance reported at the conference.

In addition, provincial specialized project management boards said there were still difficulties and problems in site clearance; coordination between investors and localities had many shortcomings; some bid packages had implementation and disbursement plans in 2025 but the selection of construction contractors had not been completed... which affected the overall disbursement progress of the province.

At the conference, localities also frankly acknowledged the reasons leading to the delay in handing over the site; at the same time, they hoped that relevant departments and branches would actively coordinate, support, and guide localities to implement and deploy the contents according to regulations.

Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Lam Van Bi spoke at the conference.

At the conference, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Lam Van Bi requested relevant departments, branches, units, and investors to review, closely coordinate, and develop solutions to implement contents related to handover, site clearance, compensation organization, relocation, and resettlement support for people in a timely manner, in compliance with legal regulations, to avoid prolonging and causing complications later; at the same time, assign the Department of Finance, Department of Agriculture and Environment, and Department of Construction to establish a working group to directly guide the operations and procedures, and accompany the locality to promptly resolve the difficulties they are facing.

Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Lu Quang Ngoi spoke at the conference.

Speaking at the conference, Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Lu Quang Ngoi highly appreciated the efforts of units and localities in implementing the task of disbursing public investment capital in the past nearly 20 days since the 7th meeting of the province.

Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Lu Quang Ngoi commended investors who disbursed above the province's average; at the same time, severely criticized investors whose disbursement rate was below the province's average. Thereby, he requested investors to organize reviews and clarify the responsibilities of related organizations and individuals to rectify and strengthen synchronous solutions.

To achieve a disbursement rate above the national average, Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Lu Quang Ngoi directed: Investors urge and require contractors to focus resources, human resources, machinery and equipment, and speed up construction progress in the remaining 30 days of 2025. Investors coordinate with construction contractors to have flexible solutions in acceptance and payment. Investors using the 2025 plan capital that have not yet had results in selecting contractors must completely complete the selection of contractors and sign contracts before December 31, 2025 to disburse the allocated capital.

On the other hand, Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Lu Quang Ngoi noted that accelerating the disbursement of public investment capital must go hand in hand with ensuring the quality of works, avoiding loss and waste of the State budget.
