On March 31, the Government Inspectorate announced the Inspection Conclusion on the Inspection of the Investment Project to build a new facility 2 of Bach Mai Hospital and Viet Duc Friendship Hospital in Ha Nam province.
In particular, the inspection results showed violations in the implementation of the two systematic projects. The Government Inspectorate has transferred the case file with signs of crime to the Ministry of Public Security for investigation and handling in accordance with the law.
At the announcement ceremony, according to Mr. Nguyen Van Cuong - Deputy Inspector General of the Government, to point out the violations in the two projects, the Inspection Team had to carry out a huge amount of work, including checking and evaluating nearly 3,000 items of documents, comparing them with thousands of different old and new regulations.
In particular, the waste value discovered through inspections at the two projects is up to thousands of billions of VND, many times higher than the estimated damage of about 100 billion VND.
The leader of the Government Inspectorate assessed that the image of two large, impressive hospitals invested by the State with tens of thousands of billions of VND but still left overgrown with grass because they could not be used in the past 10 years has long been a painful image in the entire political system and the whole society, and this is a typical example of waste in public investment.
The inspection agency also analyzed the legal basis, scientific basis, and compared practices to determine the value of waste and recommended that the fight against waste must be placed at a higher priority, changing awareness and inherent habits, so that this spirit is widely spread throughout the entire political system and all classes of people, in order to prevent and prevent this problem early and from afar.
In particular, it is necessary to amend and supplement the legal system to be complete and synchronous from determining the consequences and value of waste to the inspection, supervision, detection and appropriate handling mechanism, with high deterrence for wasteful behaviors.
The inspection conclusion has received the opinions of relevant units, been assessed according to a strict process, received the opinion of the Standing Committee of the Government Inspectorate Party Committee and was approved by the Prime Minister.
The conclusion has reflected the inspection content honestly, accurately and objectively and was issued in accordance with the provisions of the Law on Inspection.
Deputy Inspector General of the Government Nguyen Van Cuong suggested that during the implementation of the Inspection Conclusion, units that are directly inspected, in addition to the work contents according to their authority, need to proactively coordinate with relevant agencies and units to fully implement the contents in the conclusion, and report to the Prime Minister on the implementation results according to regulations.
Mr. Nguyen Van Cuong hopes that after the inspection, the Ministry of Health and relevant agencies and units will draw many valuable experiences to serve the management and operation work, continue to improve the sense of responsibility, resolutely implement measures to soon put the two hospitals into operation, meeting the expectations of the leaders of the Party, the Government and all classes of people.
