Need to consider the rate of regulating revenue according to Decision 68

(Baonghean) -One of the issues that voters were concerned about and proposed relatively focused on at the meetings of voters of the Provincial People's Council delegates before the 11th session was the inadequacy of the rate of budget revenue regulation according to Decision 68/2011/QD-UBND. According to this decision, the regulation rate for communes and wards is 0%, which is completely inadequate with the increasingly high requirements of improving economic efficiency and state management efficiency for communes and wards with small industrial zones.

With the advantage of the Industrial Park being close to Ho Chi Minh Road and more importantly, the dynamism and determination of the Party Committee and the government of Nghia Long Commune in calling for investors, and the active participation of the commune leaders, the small Industrial Park of Nghia Long (Nghia Dan) has become a bright spot in attracting investment. From the initial planning area of ​​20 hectares, this Industrial Park is now planned to be 40 hectares; with 4 enterprises already operating in production and business on an area of ​​nearly 10 hectares, creating jobs for nearly 300 workers. However, since Decision 68 of the Provincial People's Committee with the regulation of the rate of regulating revenues including VAT, CIT, other CTN-DV-NDD revenues at the commune level is 0%, it has become very difficult for a poor mountainous commune like Nghia Long. Meanwhile, also according to Decision 68, the land use fee division ratio of the budget levels, Nghia Long only gets 30% left (40 - 30 - 30 ratio for province, district, commune).

Mr. Truong Dinh Thong, Party Secretary and Chairman of the Commune People's Committee, suggested: Nghia Long is a pilot commune of Nghia Dan registered to finish in 2015, currently in dire need of capital to invest and meet the criteria. In the context of a poor commune and poor people, it is necessary to re-regulate resources for the commune in some items as per Decision 68, both supporting capital but also encouraging and motivating the commune to actively participate in attracting investment and developing industry. The Party Secretary and Chairman of the Commune People's Committee further stated: Revenues are not regulated, while problems that frequently occur in the Industrial Park such as security, order, environment... are the responsibility of the commune, which is unfair.

Dien Hong Commune (Dien Chau), a locality considered to be the first and the most effective in the province in building small industrial parks and successfully attracting investment. For more than 10 years since the industrial park has been in operation, on an area of ​​10 hectares, there have been 11 enterprises and 26 households investing in production and business. The most potential factor for this small industrial park is still fire prevention and environmental issues. There have been a number of fires that have caused significant damage to the property of enterprises and people, and the problem of air environment and wastewater environment due to the production process has caused frustration for people living around the industrial park. At such times, Dien Hong Commune, with its state management function in the area, coordinates with the functional departments of the district and province to deal with the consequences.

In order to assign responsibilities and regulate the difficult relationships and interests between enterprises in the industrial park, the commune has arranged for a part-time staff to advise the Commune People's Committee on resolving issues related to the industrial park, thanks to which the issues raised in the industrial park are basically resolved promptly by Dien Hong commune. However, when mentioning the mechanism according to Decision 68, Mr. Tran Van Tan, Chairman of Dien Hong Commune People's Committee, expressed his indignation: The development of the industrial park reflects the growth and economic restructuring. However, there are still many shortcomings arising from the construction of the industrial park, while lack of funding, poor state management, negligence leading to fires and explosions, for example, the commune must bear.

Hung Loc Industrial Park has an area of ​​nearly 8.9 hectares, currently operating phase 1 with an area of ​​5.5 hectares, attracting 10 enterprises to do business in the fields of forestry processing, packaging, plastic, stone powder processing, paper of all kinds... During the planning process, it was found that the inadequacies were due to its proximity to residential areas, incomplete and unsynchronized infrastructure, and the failure to carry out phase 2, when the Industrial Park came into operation, affected the lives and production of the surrounding people. People often complained to the commune, at every meeting, people, representatives of hamlets and communes made recommendations and proposals. Hung Loc commune also established a working group to advise on handling the above problem but it has not been resolved yet. Therefore, the operation of the small industrial park has invisibly "added work, exceeded the capacity" of the commune, while according to Decision No. 68, the mechanism for regulating the tax portion paid by enterprises is not regulated by the commune (0%). Chairman of the People's Council of Hung Loc Commune, Mr. Hoang Ngoc Can proposed: Solving the environmental problem in this industrial park cannot be done immediately, so the commune always has to face to solve the problems that require human resources and financial support. Therefore, the study to adjust the regulation rate in Decision 68 is completely correct.

Thus, it can be seen that the proposal by voters of communes with small industrial parks and industrial clusters in the area to amend Decision No. 68, including adjusting the rate of revenue regulation, is completely legitimate and consistent with the practical situation. Only with reasonable regulation can we encourage the grassroots to promote investment attraction, improve capacity and responsibility in state management, and thus develop new industrial clusters effectively in the context of infrastructure for development is still very difficult.
