Overview of the meeting
Through the review, a number of projects reported problems related to the relocation of technical infrastructure (such as the site clearance project of National Highway 13, the section from Vinh Phu Welcome Gate to Ong Bo Bridge intersection, Huynh Van Luy street to Dong Cay Viet street, etc.); construction site is not yet guaranteed (road from Ben Cat Treasury to Cau Quan, Hoa Phu Secondary School, Le Chi Dan street, etc.); specialized agencies have not yet commented on the list of equipment (the 1,500-bed General Hospital Project), etc.
The cause of difficulties and problems is due to a number of unsynchronized legal provisions; the coordination mechanism between agencies and units is not effective, many problems have not been dealt with radically and definitively such as site clearance. There are still many inadequacies in planning and implementation, especially capacity in appraisal, inspection, supervision, construction, etc. leading to slow progress, slow disbursement, and slow settlement.
At the meeting, departments, branches and localities discussed solutions to overcome difficulties and problems related to a number of specific projects in the area.
