In the afternoon of March 3, Vice Chairman of Can Tho City People's Committee Nguyen Van Hoa and representatives of relevant departments and branches inspected the progress of the Project to upgrade and expand National Highway 91 (section from Km0 - Km7).
After actual inspection at the scene, Mr. Nguyen Van Hoa had a working session with representatives of relevant departments and branches at the headquarters of Binh Thuy Ward People's Committee (Can Tho City), to listen to reports on the implementation situation and difficulties and obstacles of the project.
Speaking at the conclusion of the working session, Mr. Nguyen Van Hoa - Vice Chairman of Can Tho City People's Committee said that the city is very determined to implement many solutions to accelerate the project implementation progress.
According to Mr. Hoa, the Land Fund Development Center, investors and related wards need to review all conclusions of the Standing Committee, Chairman of the City People's Committee on compensation, support, and resettlement policies to apply correct and accurate prices and promptly announce them to the people. The implementation must be clear and final. At the meeting after March 15, units must report specifically on each case that still has problems, clearly stating which contents are problematic according to previous conclusions.
Vice Chairman of Can Tho City People's Committee also requested to promote propaganda so that people fully understand the compensation policies. He emphasized that all households on this route as well as in the city implement the same policy, there is no such thing as this project being different from that project. For contents that have been concluded and directed but have not been implemented thoroughly, the Land Fund Development Center and wards must sit down and calculate carefully.
Any comrade who sees too many things that cannot be done will report to the Standing Committee to consider. As for assigning but not doing, it is not possible, because this is a political task, for the common development of the city," Mr. Hoa emphasized and said that he will take stronger action in the coming time.
Regarding the progress of site handover, Mr. Hoa proposed to review 637/90.5 cases that have been handed over, specifically classify them according to each ward area. In case there is already a site in which ward, hand it over immediately to the investor to transfer to the construction unit; deploy to where there is a site.
For cases where money has been received but land has not been handed over, the Vice Chairman requested to continue to mobilize and reform the implementation method in the coming time. For cases where money is not received or land is not handed over, after fully reviewing policies but still not complying, they should be included in the planning area, completing procedures to enforce land recovery according to regulations.
Mr. Hoa requested to clearly classify each area; The Land Fund Development Center must transfer dossiers to each locality to consider legal dossiers, ensuring sufficient conditions before implementing coercion.
In addition, units need to focus on definitively resolving each section, ensuring continuous land for construction. The Land Fund Development Center must develop a specific plan from now until March 30, clearly identifying the number of handover cases that meet the general direction.
The Department of Agriculture and Environment is assigned to urgently advise on resettlement land prices, and prices must be available no later than March 15. The investor proactively works with construction units to develop specific construction plans, ensuring project progress.
