Unify perception and action for most effective implementation

Concluding the conference, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Nguyen Duc Trung emphasized that the Provincial Party Executive Committee must have the highest political determination, and each member of the Provincial Party Executive Committee must agree in carrying out this important task, because this is a revolution in streamlining the organizational apparatus.

Sharing the difficulties, obstacles and concerns, the Provincial Party Secretary and Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee said that since it is a revolution, it must be implemented resolutely. For the revolution to be successful, there must be sacrifices for the common goal, and there must be unity in perception and action at all levels. We discuss to do, to be determined, to make the highest effort and to implement most effectively.

"The general spirit is that each member of the Provincial Party Committee must be exemplary and resolute, first of all in the sectors and fields assigned to them and together with the Provincial Party Committee to carry out this particularly important task," the Provincial Party Committee Secretary and Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee stated.

The head of the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial People's Committee also hopes and requests that the members of the Provincial Party Executive Committee pay attention to ideological work for cadres, civil servants, public employees and workers in their agencies and units; promptly encourage and motivate to create a common consensus; at the same time, promptly correct and correct organizations, agencies and individuals who show signs of hesitation and lack of responsibility in performing this important task.

The Provincial Party Secretary and Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee also emphasized that the arrangement and consolidation must not be done mechanically, but after the merger and reorganization, the apparatus must be streamlined and internal connections must be reduced.

The important thing is that after the merger, it must operate more effectively and efficiently according to the principle: One agency does many things, one job is only presided over by one agency. Internal focal points that have overlapping functions and tasks will be merged; other focal points will review their functions and tasks to make them suitable.

For agencies receiving functions and tasks transferred from other agencies, it is necessary to review the internal organization and combine it with receiving cadres and civil servants to ensure that the arrangement plan is truly streamlined and suitable for task requirements.

At the same time, agencies, organizations and units that are not subject to arrangement and consolidation must continue to review to reduce at least 10% of internal organizational units in accordance with the direction of the Central Government.

Emphasizing the spirit and viewpoint of streamlining the apparatus as "running while lining up", being flexible, not perfectionist, not rigid, ensuring the correct implementation of the directives, but being close and suitable to the actual situation, the Provincial Party Secretary and Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee requested agencies, organizations and units to proactively develop projects so that when there are instructions from the Central Government, they can be implemented immediately.

"The new apparatus must be better, more effective, and more efficient. During the implementation process, no areas or areas must be left vacant; work must not be interrupted, delayed, or blocked; and must not affect the common work," requested Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Nguyen Duc Trung.

Based on the plan and arrangement orientation, through discussion, the Provincial Party Secretary and Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee discussed, clarified, agreed, and concluded a number of issues and contents in the plan to arrange and streamline the organization of the province's political system.

The Provincial Party Secretary and Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee requested agencies, units, and localities to complete the draft project and send it to the Provincial Party Committee's Organizing Committee - the Standing Agency of the Provincial Steering Committee before December 31, 2024 so that the province can synthesize and send it to the Central Steering Committee within the prescribed time.
