Information presented at the meeting indicated that, recognizing the task of promoting the disbursement of public investment capital as one of the key political priorities, the province has implemented many comprehensive and decisive solutions. As a result, the province has achieved many positive results in the disbursement of capital in the first months of the year.
According to publicly available disbursement data on the Ministry of Planning and Investment 's electronic portal, by the end of April 2023, Thua Thien Hue had disbursed VND 1,359.149 billion out of VND 5,758.257 billion, reaching 23.6% of the capital plan assigned by the Prime Minister, higher than the national average of 15.65% and ranking 16th out of 114 ministries, central agencies and localities.
The province continues to maintain the operation of four working groups, headed by the Chairman and Vice-Chairmen of the Provincial People's Committee, with directors of relevant departments as members, to guide, urge, inspect, supervise, and resolve obstacles in order to accelerate the progress of projects; organize weekly meetings, work with investors, and increase the frequency of on-site inspections to review, urge, identify, and resolve difficulties and obstacles arising in each project.
Public investment management and supervision in 2023 continued to be improved, ensuring close monitoring and effective use of public investment capital.
The initial application of the Investment Management Software has created a favorable environment for coordination in management and operation, serving as a tool for investors to promptly update project implementation status and disbursement progress; and to report difficulties and obstacles arising during implementation so that they can be promptly resolved.
After hearing reports from various departments and agencies, Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Nguyen Van Phuong stated that public investment plays a particularly important role in promoting the socio-economic development of the locality. However, the implementation of public investment has not met expectations due to several unresolved issues. In addition, the weak capacity of contractors is also one of the reasons leading to the aforementioned results.
Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Nguyen Van Phuong commended and acknowledged the efforts of relevant agencies, units, and individuals in implementing projects that have the potential to complete disbursement early (including 27 projects with a disbursement rate of over 50%). Typical examples include projects such as: the Dien Hong River embankment to prevent erosion (96%), Nguyen Hoang Road and Huong River overpass (59.1%)...
Mr. Phuong emphasized that the successful implementation of the investment project will contribute to job creation for the people and socio-economic development. Especially when the projects are put into use and operation, they will bring many significant benefits. Therefore, the Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee requested that units strengthen on-site inspection and supervision, urge contractors and consultants to accelerate progress; as well as closely monitor the projects and collect timely, accurate, and complete data. At the same time, they should focus on implementing many solutions simultaneously and improving the management capacity of project management boards to ensure the quality and progress of the projects.
