Ms. C.T.X.H in Ho Chi Minh City reflected that the 2024 Land Law stipulates the validity of land recovery notices for national defense and security purposes; socio-economic development for national and public interests is 12 months from the date of issuance of land recovery notices.
Thus, when it expires, the competent state agency will issue a new notice. Ms. H asked, so have the work been carried out: Developing a land acquisition plan, holding a meeting of people, investigating, surveying, measuring, and counting that had been carried out before, can it be inherited or must it be done from the beginning?
