According to the Central Inspection Commission, Mr. Dinh Van Thu, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Secretary of the Party Committee, Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee, is partly responsible for the violations and shortcomings of the Party Committee of the Provincial People's Committee for the 2011-2016, 2016-2021 terms and the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee; not exemplary because he signed a document proposing the appointment of his son when the planning had not been approved; allowed the Provincial People's Committee to recruit civil servants without taking an exam, and appointed his son to leadership positions that did not meet the conditions and standards.

Mr. Huynh Khanh Toan, member of the Provincial Party Standing Committee, Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee, Permanent Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee, is jointly responsible for the violations and shortcomings of the Provincial Party Standing Committee and the Party Committee of the Provincial People's Committee; signed the report of the Provincial People's Committee to the Ministry of Home Affairs on personnel work and appointed Mr. Le Phuoc Hoai Bao to the position of Director of the Department of Planning and Investment with some inaccurate contents.

During his time as Party Secretary and Head of the Chu Lai Open Economic Zone Management Board, Mr. Huynh Khanh Toan violated the principle of democratic centralism and the Party and State's regulations on personnel work; proposed recruiting civil servants without examination, directed planning, proposed rotation and appointment for a number of unqualified cases, including children of key officials of the province.

Pursuant to the Politburo's Regulations on disciplinary action against violating Party members, at the meeting at the end of January 2018, the Central Inspection Committee concluded that the violations and shortcomings of Mr. Dinh Van Thu and Mr. Huynh Khanh Toan were serious, so this agency decided to issue a disciplinary warning to the two men.
