Deadline for "submission of papers" on policies and regimes when streamlining the apparatus
Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Hoa Binh said that the implementation of the organization's streamlining has attracted great attention from public opinion and society, not only in terms of merging ministries, branches, agencies and units with other ministries, branches, agencies and units, but also in terms of ministries, branches and localities having to streamline their organizations, with a minimum requirement of 15-20% internal streamlining, with some units requiring up to 40% streamlining.
With the important task of implementing the summary of Resolution No. 18-NQ/TW, the Ministry of Home Affairs must advise the Government to direct and guide ministries, branches and localities to implement plans to reorganize the apparatus of state administrative agencies to ensure urgency, timeliness, effectiveness and efficiency; must develop a model of a streamlined apparatus that operates efficiently, effectively and effectively.
At the same time, in implementing the organization and restructuring of the apparatus, it is necessary to form a strong enough policy mechanism, with preferential policies to support workers who retire early; it is necessary to form a legal infrastructure for this apparatus to operate; and to advise on specific instructions for localities and ministries on what to do in streamlining and restructuring the apparatus.
Spending a lot of time discussing the issue of streamlining the organizational apparatus, the Permanent Deputy Prime Minister said that he, along with leaders of the Ministry of Home Affairs and advisory agencies, had many meetings on policies and regimes for officials and civil servants.
"Today we have to "submit our papers" to the Politburo so that the Politburo can approve the regime and policies when implementing the restructuring and streamlining of the apparatus" - Permanent Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Hoa Binh said, adding that the number of people affected is quite large, perhaps the largest ever, about 100,000 people.
The Ministry of Home Affairs has proposed specific, outstanding, and strong policies to address issues related to cadres, civil servants, and public employees affected by the restructuring of the apparatus.
Don't let government agencies be a haven for lazy people.
One issue raised by the Permanent Deputy Prime Minister for the Ministry of Home Affairs to study is to attract, retain, and train talented people, along with evaluating and using cadres.
According to Mr. Nguyen Hoa Binh, we must act quickly and urgently, but in a very scientific way. We must act quickly to move forward, but we must also prevent consequences and risks.
“In the process of implementing the streamlining and streamlining, we must do it while exploring, and the risks must be minimized. At the same time, we must be extremely cautious about the risks that General Secretary To Lam has repeatedly emphasized: “to ensure that state agencies are not a place for lazy people to live”. Streamlining and streamlining must select truly elite officials in the public administration apparatus; those who truly contribute, dedicate, have talent, intelligence, experience, and courage” - Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Hoa Binh emphasized.
He also requested to carry out the work of streamlining and streamlining but still ensure the operating apparatus operates continuously and without interruption to serve the people and businesses; trying to minimize the negative impacts that arise.
