Arrange to become stronger.

- Implementing a two-tiered local government structure, 65 new communes and wards in the province will officially begin operation from July 1st. To optimize public assets after the reorganization, the People's Committees of districts, cities, and communes have focused on inventorying, classifying, and re-evaluating all public assets so that the Department of Finance can compile the information and advise the Provincial People's Committee on effective management, allocation, and utilization plans.

Comrade Luong Trong Quynh, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee, inspected the area where the People's Committee of Huu Lien commune will be located at the People's Committee of Yen Thinh commune (Huu Lung district).

Based on directives and guidelines from the central government, the Provincial People's Committee issued document No. 696/UBND-KTTH dated April 21, 2025, regarding the arrangement, allocation, and handling of public assets when implementing the reorganization of administrative units.

Following the direction of the Provincial People's Committee, the Department of Finance has instructed the People's Committees of districts and cities to organize the review and inventory of public assets in their respective areas of management, ensuring that the requirements and progress are met with a decisive, urgent, and serious approach.

Mr. Phung Van Nghia, Chairman of the Chi Lang District People's Committee, said: To implement the plan for arranging and handling public assets when reorganizing commune-level administrative units, the district has established a steering committee and requested agencies and units to review all assets. Through the statistics and review, the entire district has 41 land and building headquarters and more than 3,000 assets; of which more than 900 assets are valued at 10 million VND or more and more than 2,000 assets are valued at less than 10 million VND. The District People's Committee has compiled a report and proposed an arrangement plan to the Department of Finance in accordance with the plan set by the Provincial People's Committee.

“Following the direction of the Provincial People's Committee, the Planning and Finance Department of the Department of Health has advised on the development of a plan for the arrangement and handling of public assets, specifically houses and land, of the health sector; established working groups to inspect the current status of houses and land to develop a handling plan according to the set plan, ensuring efficient use and preventing waste. To date, through review and statistics, the department is managing a total of 281 health station properties. The arrangement plan includes: retaining 189 health station properties for continued use to accommodate 65 main health stations and 124 branch stations; transferring 74 surplus properties to the new commune-level People's Committees for management; and transferring 12 properties for educational and cultural purposes… The new health stations after arrangement will inherit all assets from the commune, ward, and town health stations before the arrangement for management and use. After receiving them, the new health stations will have the responsibility to manage and use them.” "The responsibilities include arranging, managing, and utilizing public assets in accordance with the law; reviewing and developing plans for handling surplus assets in accordance with regulations."

According to the Department of Finance's monitoring, agencies, units, and communes have now seriously and correctly implemented a comprehensive review of all public assets, including offices, land, buildings, vehicles, machinery, and equipment, in accordance with guidelines. Specifically, the creation of records and tables clearly stating the quantity, quality, condition of use, and remaining value of assets; and the classification of assets according to their purpose of use, such as office buildings, facilities for business operations, surplus assets, specialized assets, etc., have all been carried out in detail.

Mr. Nguyen Chien Hiep, Vice Chairman of the People's Committee of Dinh Lap District, shared: During the process of reviewing and compiling public assets, Dinh Lap District has the characteristic of having a fairly synchronized system of infrastructure, including commune headquarters and newly invested equipment, and asset records are systematically maintained and managed. Therefore, creating a detailed asset list is very convenient. The district has completed the review of public assets including 56 properties (houses and land), 5 shared vehicles, and 624 pieces of equipment and machinery. A report has been compiled, and a plan for their use has been developed and submitted to the Department of Finance for appraisal and then to the Provincial People's Committee for approval of the plan for arranging and handling public assets.

During the more than one month of implementation (from April 21st to the end of May 2025), the districts and cities completed the statistical review in accordance with the directives of the Provincial People's Committee. According to data from the Department of Finance, in the 11 districts and cities of the province, there are currently 1,883 land and building establishments (388 office buildings, 1,495 establishments for public service activities); communes, wards, and towns have 266 land and building establishments. The districts and cities have 83 automobiles (56 vehicles for general work, 27 specialized vehicles); units under district management have more than 28,100 assets consisting of machinery and equipment. Communes, wards, and towns manage 4,482 assets of machinery and equipment... This is a very valuable source of public assets to ensure the working conditions of officials and civil servants in performing state management tasks as well as providing public services to citizens and businesses according to the new administrative units operating from July 1, 2025.

Rational planning for long-term goals.

After completing the review and inventory of public assets, the Department of Finance considered the following principles for developing a plan for managing, allocating, and utilizing public assets: the arrangement and allocation of assets must be appropriate to the management and usage subjects, the nature and characteristics of the assets, maximizing the utilization of existing asset resources while maintaining a long-term vision to serve long-term goals.

Regarding this matter, Ms. Nguyen Anh Yen, Deputy Director of the Department of Finance, stated: Based on the statistical results and review by the People's Committees of districts and cities, the Department of Finance has advised the Provincial People's Committee to approve the plan for the arrangement, organization, and handling of public assets when reorganizing the administrative apparatus and administrative units in Decision No. 1296/QD-UBND dated June 16, 2025, as a basis for allocating offices, land, and assets to the People's Committees of the newly merged communes and wards.

“Following the reorganization of 15 commune-level administrative units in Van Quan district and 3 communes in Cao Loc district, Van Quan district now has 6 grassroots-level administrative units: Van Quan, Tri Le, Yen Phuc, Diem He, Tan Doan, and Khanh Khe, with a total of 443 officials and civil servants working in the newly established communes. To operate the new commune administrative apparatus, the District People's Committee is accelerating the arrangement and allocation of facilities such as offices, vehicles, and equipment according to Decision 1296 of the Provincial People's Committee for the units, basically meeting the set progress requirements. In particular, the District People's Committee has allocated officials, vehicles, and equipment for the commune-level public administrative service center so that from July 1st, the new administrative apparatus will officially begin operation with the spirit of not disrupting work, especially in handling administrative procedures for citizens and businesses.”

Mr. Hoang Van Thuan, Chairman of the People's Committee of Van Quan District

Accordingly, the Provincial People's Committee assigned the following agencies, organizations, and units to manage and utilize 391 properties (houses and land) as follows: 56 properties are allocated for use as headquarters for Party and mass organization units in 65 communes and wards; and 68 properties are allocated for use as offices for government units in 65 communes and wards. The remaining 267 properties are to be used and managed by the agencies, organizations, and units after the reorganization, in accordance with regulations. Regarding the 175 properties (houses and land) that are expected to become surplus, the Provincial People's Committee assigns the People's Committees of communes and wards to manage and handle them in accordance with Government Decree No. 03/2025/ND-CP on the rearrangement and handling of public assets (houses and land) and the Provincial People's Committee's Plan No. 42/KH-UBND dated February 12, 2025, on the rearrangement and handling of public assets (houses and land) of agencies, organizations, and units under the province's management.

Regarding vehicles, the People's Committees of districts and cities currently manage and use 83 vehicles for general and specialized purposes. The Provincial People's Committee has assigned the communes and wards, after reorganization, to manage and use 51 vehicles for general purposes and 4 specialized vehicles; the remaining vehicles will be handed over to public service units for management and use in accordance with regulations… The Department of Finance has also advised on a plan to supplement the number of vehicles needed for general purposes to ensure that after reorganization, all 65/65 communes and wards will have one vehicle each.

Mr. Nguyen Tuan Nam, Secretary of the Trang Dinh District Party Committee, said: In implementing Decision 1296 of the Provincial People's Committee, the district has basically completed the allocation and arrangement of facilities to serve the operation of the newly merged communes. Currently, the staff and civil servants of the new communes are ready to officially begin operations from July 1, 2025.

In just a few days, the newly established communes and wards will officially begin operations. The arrangement and organization of public assets within these units is a necessary and sufficient condition for the stable operation of these new administrative units from the very first day. Simultaneously, the rational and scientific arrangement and organization of public assets will contribute to the communes and wards effectively carrying out their state management duties, providing public services to citizens and businesses, and thus contributing to the successful implementation of local socio-economic development tasks.
