In recent days, Chairman of the People's Committee of Cao Bang province Le Hai Hoa has issued two telegrams requesting departments, branches and localities to tighten discipline and order, speeding up the disbursement of public investment capital in the final final stage of 2025.
On December 20, according to Lao Dong, the Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee signed and issued Official Dispatch No. 32/CD-CT, requiring the entire government system to consider the disbursement of public investment capital as the most important and urgent political task from now until December 31, 2025.
The heads of agencies, units and localities must directly direct, directly monitor the progress and take full responsibility to the Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee for the disbursement results; do not accept the situation of avoiding, pushing or linking to administrative procedures for delays.
According to the updated report as of December 18, the whole Cao Bang province only has 21/75 investors issuing disbursements, with a total capital of more than 117 billion VND.
Accumulated disbursement reached more than VND 6,059 billion, equivalent to 62% of the annual plan. Despite improvements compared to last week, the overall progress is still considered slow, especially for 11 units with a disbursement rate of less than 50%.
The Chairman of the People's Committee of Cao Bang province requested these units to immediately review each project, each package, each payment file, and specifically report the disbursement volume each day; in case of no disbursement, the cause must be clearly stated and personal responsibilities must be clearly identified.
Previously, on December 15, the Chairman of the People's Committee of Cao Bang province issued an urgent telegram on accelerating the disbursement of public investment capital, capital for national target programs and the Dong Dang (Lang Son) - Tra Linh (Cao Bang) expressway project.
At this time, the whole province has only disbursed 57.3% of the plan; the key expressway project alone still has more than 1,600 billion VND that has not been disbursed.
The Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee assessed that the remaining capital is very large, while there is not much time left, if there is no drastic direction of the order, it will be difficult to complete the plan, affecting financial - budget discipline and the efficiency of public investment capital use.
The consecutive two power outages in less than a week shows the determination of Cao Bang provincial leaders in tightening the responsibility of heads, creating strong pressure to remove traditional "bottlenecks" and promote the disbursement of public investment capital in the last days of 2025.
