Many localities implement social housing projects, but mainly on paper, this delay is due to regulations. To have social housing implemented quickly and meet the needs of workers, there needs to be a support policy and remove obstacles.
On May 20, the Government submitted to the National Assembly a Resolution on a number of specific policies and mechanisms for the development of social housing. In which, there is a proposal to assign investors to social housing projects not through bidding, but based on the assignment of competent authorities.
This is a very supported policy, because the bidding procedures will be shortened by 6-12 months. Shortening the time is one thing, but more importantly, eliminating procedures saves costs, businesses focus resources on project implementation.
Some opinions say that not bidding may not be public, transparent, fair, not to mention affecting the quality of the project and other consequences.
The worrying thing is that there is a basis, however, there are cases where it is necessary to boldly implement specific policies to complete the goal, social housing is a program that needs to be implemented and completed quickly to serve the housing needs of the people.
When not through bidding, besides appraising the capacity of the investor, the competent authority must have a mechanism to inspect and supervise to ensure the quality of the work and take responsibility for relevant decisions. Here, it is necessary to determine the personal responsibility of the person who makes the decision to select the investor. The project must be completed on schedule and product quality as committed, otherwise the person who makes the decision to select the investor must be responsible.
For the preferential policy of raising the profit level from the current 10%, to the maximum of 13%, businesses see more opportunities in investing in social housing projects. Up to now, businesses have not boldly participated in projects because they are concerned about low efficiency, so the new incentive level will be a driving force to attract more investors.
Remove procedures and increase profits, which are policies to promote acceleration of social housing projects. Many social housing products are soon put on the market, giving workers more opportunities to have a place to live.
