Support for resolving administrative procedures after merging communes and wards in Hanoi

LƯƠNG HẠNH |

Many people living in the communes and wards subject to merger in Hanoi are wondering and questioning about changing personal information and administrative procedures that may arise after the merger.

Fear of personal documents being disturbed

Ms. Dang My Hanh (Phuong Lien Ward, Dong Da District, Hanoi) shared that previously, the area where she lived had changed the name of the residential group/village to the name of the alley/street. According to the plan, people did not have to go through the change procedure and the population data management system would automatically change it. However, during her transactions with the bank, she encountered many troubles and had to go through many equivalent conversion procedures.

When he heard that Tho Loc and Tich Giang communes were about to merge into Tich Loc commune in Phuc Tho district, Hanoi, Nguyen Hoang Chien couldn't help but worry. According to Chien, information on documents such as ID cards, land use right certificates, driver's licenses, bank information, etc. will have to be completely changed. "I hope to receive support and guidance from the local government if I have to change my documents after the administrative unit is reorganized," said Chien.

Speaking with Lao Dong, Ms. Nguyen Thi Huong Giang - Deputy Head of the Department of Internal Affairs of Phuc Tho District, Hanoi City - said: When merging administrative units, problems and shortcomings will arise related to citizens' personal documents, such as Citizen Identification Cards, Birth Certificates and other documents such as business registration, and many other types of documents. However, the city and district agencies have a solution. After establishing the new administrative unit, they will urgently start to change the documents for the people.

Maximum support for citizens

Hanoi currently has 30 district-level administrative units and 579 commune-level administrative units. In the 2023-2025 period, through review and comparison with the criteria, Hanoi is expected to have 173 commune-level administrative units subject to rearrangement. The number of commune-level administrative units after rearrangement is 518 units, including: 337 communes, 160 wards, and 21 towns. The number of commune-level administrative units reduced after rearrangement is 61 units, including 46 communes and 5 wards.

Previously, Director of the Department of Home Affairs of Hanoi City Tran Dinh Canh said that regarding the change of some information on people's personal documents after the administrative unit arrangement, the city's policy is to provide maximum support to citizens when changing personal documents, resolving related administrative records and procedures due to the change of administrative boundary names. Regarding the resolution of the conversion of administrative documents and procedures due to the administrative unit arrangement, Hanoi City has directed the City Police to resolve administrative records and procedures (on personal identity) for people according to the mechanism of the city providing full support.

According to the Director of the Department of Internal Affairs, in fact, in the previous reorganization, some localities supported people in the direction of the City Police going down to the villages and residential groups to carry out administrative procedures for the people. In this reorganization, for all administrative procedures related to the change of place names and names of administrative units, the city has directed relevant units to establish working groups to go directly to the villages and residential groups to support people with the goal of being as fast as possible, without interruption.
