The Council assesses the status of the exhibits and determines the form of handling the seized administrative violation exhibits and proceeds to destroy the violated exhibits.

Mr. Pham Duc Nghi - Chief Inspector of the Department of Information and Communications added: Every year, the Dak Lak Province Anti-Illegal Printing Joint Team develops and issues the Team's operational plan; coordinates well with the Provincial Police, the Department of Culture and Information of districts, cities and related departments and branches in inspecting, checking and handling administrative violations in the field of publishing, printing and distribution... In the past 15 years, the Team has conducted 35 inspections and checks on 197 individuals and organizations, imposed administrative fines with a total amount of VND 593,450,000, confiscated 02 color photocopiers, 151 block calendars, 10,097 publications of unknown origin and documents. With the drastic participation of the Provincial Anti-Illegal Printing Joint Team and functional forces in the inspection and handling of violations, it has contributed to creating a healthy business environment for legitimate businesses, protecting consumer rights and stabilizing the market. However, the production and trade of fake, pirated textbooks of illegal origin in the province continues to occur with new methods of operation and increasingly sophisticated tricks, creating many difficulties and challenges for functional forces, especially for the Provincial Anti-Illegal Printing Joint Team in the work of inspecting, controlling the market and handling violators.
