HANOI: Bac Giang is actively encouraging project stakeholders to proactively prepare essential prerequisites to enhance project readiness and feasibility.
The province is pushing for swift progress in construction, efficient completion of inspections, immediate payment for accomplished milestones, and the timely fulfillment of procedures at the treasury to facilitate the disbursement of allocated public investment funds for each project, adhering to the established schedules.
According to Bui Thi Thu Thuy, director of the province’s Department of Planning and Investment, districts and Bac Giang City are prioritising tasks related to land clearance and ensuring timely support for resettlement in compliance with regulations.
This approach aims to uphold legal standards, striking a balance between state interests and those of the local population.
Additionally, a meticulous review and detailed assessment of the budget implementation for the first 11 months of 2023 is under way.
This evaluation will inform the reconsideration and adjustment of the mid-term public investment plan for the 2021-2025 period, aligning it with the financial landscape to prevent public investment plans from exceeding budgetary capacities.
According to a report from the Planning and Investment Ministry, Bac Giang ranks 10th in the country in terms of disbursement rates among the group of 27 provinces and cities with higher disbursement rates than the allocated capital plan assigned by the Prime Minister.
Several public investment projects in the province are progressing well, including the construction of the A Lu Bridge and the western approach road in Bac Giang City, the upgrade and expansion of the road connecting Provincial Road 293 to National Highway 17 in the province, and the construction of the Nhu Nguyet Bridge.
As part of the early 2023 assignment plan, 10 newly initiated projects under provincial management have been allocated funds for project implementation since the beginning of the year.
Throughout the year, the People’s Committee of Bac Giang province will continue to allocate additional funds for project implementation and initiate four new projects (excluding projects supported with district-level budgets).
Until now, seven construction projects have been initiated, including the construction project for the new provincial inter-agency building in Bac Giang City; the investment project to build infrastructure for several high schools, vocational education centres, and continuing education centres in Hiep Hoa District.
Others include the construction of infrastructure for some high schools, vocational education centres and continuing education centres in Lang Giang and Yen The Districts.
Other projects involve the investment and upgrade of infrastructure to support vocational training at the key Vocational College of Technology Vietnam-Korea Bac Giang and the investment in the expansion of in-patient bed capacity at the Son Dong District Health Centre.
It also includes the project to build the Provincial Disease Control Centre in Bac Giang City and the management of the safety of dams and water reservoirs (including Cam Son, Khuon Than, Suoi Nuo reservoirs and Cau Son dam). — Viet Nam News/ANN
