According to information from Lang Son Provincial People's Committee, the whole province is currently implementing 220 projects with a total area of over 6,200ha, involving more than 26,600 households, individuals and organizations.
However, the site clearance results have not yet met the requirements when so far only more than 80ha has been handed over to 51 projects. Many key projects continue to face difficulties, affecting the progress of implementation and investment disbursement plans.
Through review, the province identified one of the main reasons as the lack of decisiveness in direction and administration in some localities. The handling of difficulties and obstacles is still slow, and propaganda and mobilization work has not created high consensus among the people.
In addition, many localities have not proactively prepared resettlement land funds and cemeteries to serve relocation, leading to the arising thoughts and recommendations of people in the project area.
To create clear changes in the coming time, the Provincial People's Committee requests all levels and sectors to continue to identify site clearance as a key and regular task of the entire political system.
Heads of agencies and units must directly direct and be responsible for the results of implementation; not to let situations of avoidance, shirking responsibility or slow handling of issues under their authority occur.
The province also requires that the implementation must closely follow the "6 clear" motto, including clear people, clear tasks, clear time, clear responsibilities, clear products and clear authority.
Difficulties arising must be promptly coordinated and resolved; cases exceeding authority must be reported to competent authorities for consideration and immediate handling.
For localities, the Provincial People's Committee requests to accelerate the review of resettlement needs, complete land acquisition dossiers, strengthen citizen reception, and resolve petitions right from the grassroots level.
At the same time, publicize the entire process of compensation, support, and resettlement to create consensus among the people and limit the occurrence of lawsuits.
Specialized agencies are assigned to strengthen field inspections, promptly detect cases of taking advantage of policies for personal gain or intentionally obstructing project implementation.
For cases of non-compliance with regulations, localities must proactively prepare sufficient conditions to organize coercive inventory and coercive land recovery in accordance with legal procedures, ensuring project progress.
According to Lang Son Provincial People's Committee, accelerating the progress of site clearance is considered an important solution to remove bottlenecks in development investment, create clean land funds for infrastructure, industrial, urban and service projects, contributing to promoting local economic growth in the coming period.
