Meeting to implement the budget revenue and expenditure plan for February 2025.

On February 6th, Mr. Vu Van Dien, Standing Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee, chaired a meeting to hear reports on the results of the implementation of the state budget revenue and local budget expenditure estimates for January 2025 and the detailed plan for budget revenue and expenditure for February 2025.

In January 2025, total state budget revenue in the locality reached VND 5,242 billion, equivalent to 9% of the central and provincial budget estimates, and 99% of the same period last year. The cumulative revenue for the first two months is estimated at VND 8,968 billion, equivalent to 16% of the central budget estimates, and 100% of the same period last year. Regarding local budget expenditure, in January 2025 it reached VND 1,733 billion, and the cumulative expenditure for the first two months is estimated at VND 3,343 billion, equivalent to 11% of the budget estimates, and 145% of the same period last year.

Speaking at the meeting, Mr. Vu Van Dien, Standing Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee, directed a review and assessment of all extended expenditure budgets for 2024, to be completed before February 15, 2025. He requested a focus on resolving difficulties and obstacles in public investment projects and projects using non-budgetary capital. He also called for the issuance of separate plans for each project and construction work to clearly define the responsibilities of relevant agencies, investors, and individual contractors and consultants, in order to strictly control the quality and progress of the projects. He emphasized that absolutely no losses, waste, or corruption should occur, including wasted time due to delays in processing and the issuance of documents requesting opinions from units outside their functional scope; and the waiting time for opinions or unclear and vague responses that prolong the processing time of documents. Regarding local budget revenue, a specific plan for land-related revenue collection needs to be developed, requiring the Department of Finance and the Department of Natural Resources and Environment to proactively report on the results of land valuation. Local People's Committees are required to report and submit land allocation dossiers for public investment projects and projects permitted to allocate land multiple times within a single project, periodically on the 10th, 20th, and 30th of each month.
