Hanoi City People's Committee has just submitted a report proposing the promulgation of a Resolution of the City People's Council stipulating the level of compensation and support when the State recovers land in the city.
According to the content of the submission, the City People's Committee said that the application of current policies when compensating, supporting, and resettling for site clearance to implement large and important projects of the Capital in general has received the consensus and support of the people.
However, these regulations also create inconsistency and unfairness to land users when the State recovers land to implement projects that are not large projects or important projects of the Capital.
From the above reality, according to the City People's Committee, the promulgation of the City People's Council's Resolution stipulating policies on compensation and support when the State recovers land for national defense and security purposes; land recovery in necessary cases to implement socio-economic development projects for national and public interests in Hanoi City (implementing the provisions of point c, clause 2, Article 24 of the Capital Law No. 02/2026/QH16) is necessary; ensuring a unified legal corridor for implementing compensation and support when the State recovers land in Hanoi City.
Accordingly, the compensation level (in cash) for land is 1.5 times higher than the prescribed level. The compensation level for assets, investment costs in land, support and resettlement when the state recovers land is 1 time higher than the prescribed level.
According to the draft submission, the drafting for the City People's Council to issue a resolution aims to create a policy that is superior and superior, ensuring a legal corridor and sufficient capacity to effectively handle the issues of Hanoi Capital.
At the same time, to meet the requirements of mobilizing land resources in the construction and development of Hanoi in the new era.
On January 27, 2026, the City People's Council passed Resolution No. 90/2026/NQ-HĐND (implementing Clause 4, Article 7 of Resolution No. 258/2025/QH15 dated December 11, 2025 of the National Assembly), in which Article 4 stipulates:
