Regarding the policy of arranging administrative units (ADUs) at all levels, the Politburo has issued conclusions and the Central Organizing Committee has issued instructions on not electing Chairmen and Vice Chairmen of provinces and cities after the merger but instead appointing and appointing them.
However, many opinions are concerned that the appointment of personnel will have personal will, not ensuring the factor of fairness and objectivity in selecting personnel for provincial leaders.
This issue was raised at a press conference on the afternoon of April 4 on the expected agenda of the 9th Session of the 15th National Assembly.
Responding to the press, Deputy Chairman of the National Assembly of the National Assembly of the National Assembly Nguyen Phuong Thuy said that this content was researched and discussed by competent authorities and stated in the 150 Conclusion of the Politburo on the mechanism of appointment and appointment of the person holding the position in the People's Council (People's Council), People's Committee (People's Committee) in the administrative unit after arranging instead of election in the People's Council as long.
Accordingly, when implementing the merger, consolidation of provincial-level administrative units or the establishment of new commune-level administrative units, no elections will be held for the positions of Chairman, Vice Chairman of the People's Council, People's Committee; Head and Deputy Head of the National Assembly Delegation; Head of the People's Council's Committees and People's Committee members according to regulations.
Instead, the National Assembly Standing Committee, the Prime Minister, and the Standing Committees of People's Councils at the provincial and commune levels are assigned to, based on the announcement of the competent Party Committee managing cadres, to appoint and appoint personnel to hold the above positions.
In special cases, it is allowed to appoint personnel who are not People's Council delegates to hold leadership positions of newly established People's Councils at the provincial and commune levels.
Vice Chairman of the National Assembly's Committee on Law and Justice Nguyen Phuong Thuy added that this mechanism had not been implemented before, but this arrangement of administrative units has a very different point: in addition to merging provinces and communes, there is also a very large policy of not organizing administrative units at the district level.
"To meet the requirements of arranging and assigning cadres and exploiting the maximum available human resources, the Politburo directed this time to implement the mechanism of appointment at the arrangement site, only implemented in 2025.
And later, it will return to the normal mechanism, which is the People's Council electing positions in the People's Council and People's Committee. This will also be noted in the National Assembly's resolution to serve as a legal basis for implementation" - Vice Chairman of the National Assembly's Law and Justice Committee Nguyen Phuong Thuy emphasized.
