Prime Minister disciplines two former Deputy Ministers of Labor, War Invalids and Social Affairs

Deputy Prime Minister Tran Luu Quang has just signed decisions of the Prime Minister on disciplinary action against two former deputy ministers of the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs.

Accordingly, in Decision No. 446/QD-TTg dated May 23, 2024, the Prime Minister decided to impose a disciplinary measure in the form of a warning against Mr. Huynh Van Ti - former Deputy Minister of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs - for violations and shortcomings in his work, and the Politburo had already imposed disciplinary action against him within the Party.

In Decision No. 447/QD-TTg, the Prime Minister decided to discipline Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Phi, former Deputy Minister of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs, with a warning. The reason is that Mr. Phi had committed violations and shortcomings in his work, and the Central Disciplinary Committee had already imposed disciplinary action against him within the Party.

Previously, at its 37th session, following the direction of the Central Steering Committee on preventing and combating corruption and negative practices, and after reviewing the results of an inspection into suspected violations by the Party Committee of the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs, the Central Inspection Committee found that the Party Committee of the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs had violated the principle of democratic centralism and the working regulations.

The Party Committee of the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs was also found to be irresponsible and lax in leadership and direction, allowing the Ministry and some organizations and individuals to seriously violate Party regulations and State laws in advising and implementing mechanisms and policies in the field of vocational training; and in implementing contracts carried out by the International Advanced Corporation (AIC) and enterprises within the AIC ecosystem.

According to the Central Inspection Committee, the aforementioned violations have affected the implementation of the Vocational Training Development Strategy, causing serious and difficult-to-remedy consequences; posing a significant risk of loss and waste of state funds, assets, and social human resources; causing public outrage and negatively impacting the reputation of the Party organization and state management agencies, to the extent that disciplinary action must be considered and taken.

The Central Inspection Committee concluded that responsibility for the aforementioned violations rests with the Party Committee of the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs for the terms 2011-2016 and 2016-2021, including former Party Committee members and Deputy Ministers Nguyen Ngoc Phi and Huynh Van Ti.

The Central Disciplinary Committee issued a warning to Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Phi, former member of the Party Committee and Deputy Minister of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs.

On April 19, the Politburo and the Secretariat reviewed and disciplined the Party Committee of the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs and related individuals. Specifically, the Politburo decided to issue a warning to Mr. Huynh Van Ti.
