Causing trouble for people and businesses
The Government Inspectorate has just issued a Conclusion on the inspection of the responsibility for performing public duties of cadres, civil servants and public employees in handling administrative procedures and public services for people and businesses at the People's Committee of Da Nang City (from June 15, 2021 to November 30, 2023).

The results of reviewing and examining the time limit for handling records through the outline and reporting request form of the Inspection Team for 13 inspected administrative procedures showed that the number of records handled was 1,531 records, overdue was 548 records (accounting for 35.79%), of which 4 administrative procedures had an overdue rate of over 50%, and some administrative procedures had a small number of records handled, but the rate of overdue records was much higher than the report of the City People's Committee.
Typically, the administrative procedure "Issuing Investment Registration Certificate for projects not subject to investment policy approval": Reported overdue settlement rate: 14.29% (02/14 records), inspection results 70% (07/10 records).
