Regarding this content, many opinions said that administrative reform has changed but there are still many shortcomings. Representative of the Veterans Business Association - Mr. Thai Dai Phong - Director of Duc Phong Company Limited suggested that the Department of Justice and related departments review the system of legal documents to create favorable conditions for businesses. Previously, there were investment incentive documents that are no longer suitable, so they need to be reviewed and eliminated.

In addition, it is necessary to soon put into operation an electronic button system to evaluate the level of satisfaction with public services, because currently many departments and branches have not really reformed, causing frustration for businesses when accessing and solving work.

Districts and communes are slow to pay debts to businesses.

Also at the meeting, delegates listened to a report on the settlement of business petitions in June 2017; a summary report on business and investor petitions in July 2017.

Accordingly, the total number of units assigned to handle and respond is 7 units (including: Department of Natural Resources and Environment, Hoang Mai Town People's Committee, Nghe An Tax Department, Department of Finance; Provincial Inspectorate, Department of Industry and Trade, Department of Transport) to resolve 10 petitions.

Regarding this issue, the Party Committee of the business sector reflected the proposal of the Rural Development and Construction Joint Stock Company 10 for production and business activities in the construction sector. In recent years, due to the insufficient capital allocated for the projects to meet the construction progress plan, the company had to borrow capital from the bank to complete the projects, but the investor did not promptly allocate capital to pay; some projects have lasted 4-8 years without payment, the total amount of money that the units still owe the company is more than 44 billion VND. Therefore, the company has not completed the payments to the state budget and has to pay bank interest for a long time, affecting production and business activities and ensuring jobs and policies for employees.
