Provincial People's Committee held a meeting to urge the implementation of national target programs.

On August 10, comrade Nguyen Long Bien, member of the Provincial Party Committee, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee chaired a meeting to listen to reports on the implementation of two national target programs (NTPs) on sustainable poverty reduction and socio-economic development in ethnic minority and mountainous areas.

Implementing the disbursement of the 2022 plan, by July 31, 2023, the whole province had disbursed 174.48 billion VND of development investment capital from the central budget, reaching 88.5% and 67.94 billion VND of public capital, reaching 58.5%. Regarding the 2023 plan, in the first 7 months of 2023, 102.35 billion VND of development investment capital from the central budget was disbursed, reaching 49% of the assigned plan and 85.58 billion VND of public capital, reaching 22.5%. In general, the disbursement work in July had positive changes and was higher than the general progress of the whole country but did not meet the requirements of the plan; there are still some units that have not implemented the disbursement work.

Comrade Nguyen Long Bien, Member of the Provincial Party Committee, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee chaired the meeting.

Concluding the meeting, the Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee requested departments, branches, sectors and localities to continue to implement the direction of the Provincial People's Committee to resolutely and synchronously implement solutions to promote the progress of implementation and capital disbursement; promote the sense of responsibility in directing, operating, urging and propagating to accelerate the progress of implementing the National Target Programs. Strengthen the activities of the Steering Committees at all levels to promptly monitor the results and grasp and handle difficulties and obstacles to accelerate the progress of implementation in the last months of 2023. Regarding the issue of supporting housing construction in localities that are being implemented and have problems with the investment process, the relevant departments and sectors unanimously advise the Provincial People's Committee to handle it. Vocational training work that is likely to not be able to fully disburse the allocated capital needs to be directed to transfer to implement other projects in accordance with regulations. Relevant sectors and localities need to pay attention to mobilizing capital for vocational training, developing projects, finding artisans to pass on the profession, and forming training facilities to preserve and promote the pottery making profession of the Cham people. For projects that are still stuck, localities and departments and sectors must agree on the direction of implementation; review remaining difficulties, fully synthesize proposals, and report to relevant ministries and sectors for guidance on solutions. Strengthen supervision to ensure the best disbursement results for capital to implement the two national target programs according to the assigned plan in 2023.
