The Ministry of Justice is reviewing the draft Decree amending and supplementing a number of articles of Decree No. 178/2024 of the Government on policies and regimes for cadres, civil servants, public employees, workers and armed forces in implementing the restructuring of the apparatus of the political system.
According to the submission of the Ministry of Home Affairs, in the process of implementing Decree No. 178, many ministries, branches, central and local agencies have made recommendations and proposals related to the scope and subjects of the Decree.
On that basis, the Ministry of Home Affairs reports to the Government Party Committee to report to the Politburo to expand the scope and subjects of application of Decree No. 178.
Additional subjects of application
Up to now, the Politburo has agreed to adjust the scope and subjects of policy and regimes for cadres, civil servants, public employees, workers and armed forces in implementing the organizational arrangement of the political system in Conclusion No. 75.
To institutionalize the Politburo's policy and unify the implementation of Decree No. 178, the Ministry of Home Affairs proposed amending and supplementing the subjects of application, including:
Cadres, civil servants, public employees, and contractors receiving salaries from the State budget according to the provisions of the labor law before January 15, 2019 and armed forces who are at least 5 years old and have reached retirement age in agencies, organizations, and units are not directly affected by the arrangement of the apparatus but must streamline the payroll, restructure, and improve the quality of cadres, civil servants, and public employees;
The subjects are those who work within the staffing quota and receive salaries from the State budget at associations assigned by the Party and the State at the central and local levels due to the direct impact of the implementation of arrangement, consolidation and merger;
In addition, cadres who are not old enough to be re-elected or reappointed as prescribed in Decree No. 177/2024 of the Government; cadres who meet the age requirements for re-election or reappointment of Party committees at the same level, with working time calculated from the date of congress organization from 2.5 years (30 months) to 5 years (60 months) to the retirement age prescribed in Decree No. 177 and cadres participating in Party committees at Party committees at Party committees must complete their activities, ensuring that the organizational apparatus is 5 years (60 months) or less until retirement age, and there is a risk of early retirement to create conditions for arranging Party committee personnel during the Party Congresses at all levels to the 14th National Congress of the Party.
According to the Ministry of Home Affairs, in the process of reorganizing the apparatus, especially merged and consolidated agencies, the number of leaders and managers of the agencies after the reorganization is much higher than the regulations.
Therefore, to facilitate the arrangement of leaders and managers to ensure the number in accordance with the provisions of law and create conditions for young cadres to have the opportunity to develop, the Ministry of Home Affairs proposes to add a provision: "Citizens, civil servants, leaders and managers in agencies, organizations and units under the organizational structure of agencies specified in Clause 1, Article 1 of this Decree who wish to retire early to facilitate the implementation of the organizational arrangement of the political system".
Maximum additional support level
Regarding amending and supplementing local additional support policies, the Ministry of Home Affairs said that currently, some localities have issued Resolutions of the Provincial People's Council on additional support policies for subjects settled according to the provisions of Decree No. 178 with too large support differences.
The Ministry of Home Affairs cited the reality that some provinces support at 100%, some provinces support at 10%, some provinces support at the absolute maximum amount of 300 million VND/person.
"Therefore, to ensure the correlation of policies and regimes between the central and local governments and between localities, it is recommended to stipulate that the maximum additional support policy of the locality is 30%," the Ministry of Home Affairs proposed.
