"Running" to pilot the 2-level government model is considered favorable
According to the plan approved by the Hanoi Party Committee, the trial operation phase of the 2-level government model from June 20 to 26 will focus on handling public administrative services serving people and businesses; coordinating between departments, branches and localities. On June 27, the city held a preliminary meeting, drew experience and continued synchronous implementation.
Talking to Lao Dong Newspaper about "running" a trial of the two-level government model, Mr. Nguyen Viet Hung - Vice Chairman of the People's Committee of Dai Mo Ward (old) said that a part of Dai Mo Ward (old) will be merged into Tay Mo Ward (new), with a total area of 5.95km2 and a population of 46,469 people. The new administrative unit includes most of Tay Mo ward; part of Dai Mo and Phu Do wards (Nam Tu Liem district); Duong Noi ward (Ha Dong district) and An Khanh commune (Hoai Duc district).
"Currently, the facilities serving the new ward such as the signboard and the departments have been completely repaired. The headquarters of Tay Mo ward (new) is located at the location of Dai Mo ward People's Committee (old). The documents and papers have been boiled and handed over to us since June 16. As for any difficulties or problems, it will only be until the trial operation can be specifically assessed," said Mr. Hung.
According to Mr. Hung, when implementing the two-level local government model, the work of the professional staff will basically not change. Cadres assigned to any unit will continue to work there. This force was also added from Nam Tu Liem district down. After being announced, key leadership positions will be tested according to the process and operate as usual.
"I find the implementation of the new model quite smooth. Although during the testing process, the workload increased, everyone was very busy, but the one-stop department still maintained normal operations, without interrupting the service to the people for a single day," Mr. Hung affirmed.
The trial operation includes 10 key groups of contents
