On August 1, Party Central Committee member, Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Chi Dung chaired a meeting on reviewing the implementation of Resolution No. 71/NQ-CP on the Government's Action Program to implement Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW of the Politburo on breakthroughs in science, technology development, innovation and national digital transformation, and tasks assigned in the Conclusion Notice of the Central Steering Committee.
In the Conclusion Notice No. 365/TB-VPCP dated July 16, 2025, the meeting to review the content and preparations for the 3rd meeting of the Government Steering Committee on science, technology development, innovation, digital transformation and Project 06 - preliminary review of work in the first 6 months of the year, deployment of tasks for the last 6 months of 2025, Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Chi Dung gave his opinion on a number of key tasks that need to be completed before July 31, 2025.
The Ministry of Science and Technology reviewed additional tasks in the conclusions of the Central Steering Committee in July.
However, up to now, the implementation progress of ministries and branches is still slow, not completing the total assigned tasks.
Speaking at the meeting, the Deputy Prime Minister pointed out that there is still a lot of work to be done, especially the workload for the last 6 months of the year is very large (286 tasks).
The Deputy Prime Minister requested ministries and branches to report promptly and on time so that the Ministry of Science and Technology has a more proactive and fluid basis in the work of synthesizing reports.
"The Ministry of Science and Technology must synthesize more comprehensive, overview, complete and detailed report data" - the Deputy Prime Minister emphasized.
The Government leaders requested that after today's meeting, ministries, branches and localities must immediately deploy reports on the implementation of assigned tasks and clearly state problems, especially, must commit to progress and propose and recommend solutions, send to the Ministry of Science and Technology and the Government Office before August 5, 2025.
The plan and implementation plan in the coming time need to be associated with responsibility, commitment to quality and progress; proactively report to the Government leaders in charge to chair meetings with relevant ministries and agencies to direct, promptly remove difficulties and limitations in implementation.
The Ministry of Science and Technology continues to promote its role as the standing agency of the Government Steering Committee. The heads of the working groups uphold the sense of responsibility, focus on urging the organization, implementation and completion of tasks.
At the same time, they discussed and agreed with the Steering Committee - Central Steering Committee on the form of common access to the Monitoring Information System to monitor and evaluate the implementation of Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW to monitor the implementation.
Ministries, branches, agencies and localities should discuss and closely coordinate in the direction of gathering key and breakthrough task groups; avoid listing too many new tasks that may overlap or share the same content and nature as assigned tasks (which have been and are being implemented) leading to failure to meet the requirements on quality and completion progress of tasks.
Along with that, it is necessary to be more proactive, closer and more timely in updating and reporting to the Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister on the implementation of Resolution No. 71-NQ/CP of the Government and the implementation of assigned tasks in the Conclusion Notice of the Central Steering Committee.
