Proposing a new organizational model suitable for the digital transformation context

The Organization Department proposes to continue affirming the policy of streamlining the organization and apparatus, reducing intermediary units, streamlining staff, and avoiding overlapping functions and tasks between agencies in the political system as an extremely important task.

It is necessary to continue to evaluate the actual effectiveness after implementing previous resolutions (Resolutions of the 18th and 19th Central Committee, Session XII) and propose new organizational models suitable to the current development situation, especially in the context of digital transformation.

Promote decentralization and delegation of power in conjunction with power control. Propose to increase proactive empowerment of localities and bases, but there must be an independent inspection and monitoring mechanism to effectively control power.

Review and complete regulations on the relationship between the Party - government - front - socio-political organizations at each administrative level.

Building a team of cadres with sufficient qualities, capacity, prestige, and equal to the task. Proposing to innovate the work of planning, training and appointing cadres based on practical capacity and output, instead of focusing on degrees, age or background. It is necessary to expand the mechanism of healthy competition in the work of selection and appointment, especially for key leadership positions.

The policy on treating cadres needs to be consistent with actual requirements. Recommend stronger reforms in salary, allowance and working conditions policies for cadres, especially at the grassroots level - where work pressure is high but income is limited. Propose to issue a mechanism for evaluating cadres quantitatively, clearly and publicly and with sanctions if the evaluation is not objective.

Continue to pay attention to protecting cadres who dare to think and act for the common good. At the same time, clearly distinguish between "risks due to violations" and "risks in performing duties".

Continuing to innovate the organizational apparatus and implementing personnel policies must take serving the people as the center. Combining discipline, transparency with innovation. Increasing publicity and healthy competition in the personnel process.
