Regarding the content of the monitoring delegation, Vinh City People's Committee said that from the beginning of 2016 to the end of June 2018, the city regularly received citizens with 1,578 people/1,543 cases, of which complaints related to land acquisition and compensation and land use rights were 53 cases; denunciations related to land acquisition and compensation and land use rights were 3 cases; recommendations and reflections related to land acquisition and compensation and land use rights were 1,487 cases.

Regarding regular citizen reception, Vinh City received 403 citizens related to 393 cases, of which 10 were complaints related to land acquisition and land use rights; 1 was denunciation related to land acquisition and land use rights; and 382 were recommendations and reflections related to land acquisition and land use rights.

Despite many efforts, according to the Vinh City People's Committee, the number of petitions arising in the area is still high, especially petitions related to compensation for site clearance. The City People's Committee assigned some cases to departments and units for consultation, but there were still delays.

The reason is said to be that the city has to reclaim land to implement many projects, while the legal regulations on granting land use right certificates, compensation for site clearance, etc. still have many shortcomings, contradictions, and are not close to reality. People do not agree, so petitions arise beyond the level of authority and are prolonged.

On the part of the people, there are cases where, although they clearly understand the legal regulations, they still deliberately refuse to accept the settlement results that are in accordance with the regulations of the competent State agencies.

Subjectively, State management in some areas is not good and lacks determination, especially in the fields of land management, urban order, cooperatives, etc., leading to the emergence of petitions and difficulties in the resolution process.

The members of the monitoring delegation also asked many questions related to difficulties in the implementation process and recommendations from the Vinh City People's Committee.

Speaking at the meeting, Deputy Head of the Provincial Citizen Reception Committee Thai Minh Tuan assessed that Vinh City is a locality with many petitions, especially those related to land. “From the beginning of 2016 to now, at the provincial level, there have been 53/119 major cases related to land in Vinh City and they have basically been resolved,” Mr. Tuan cited.

Through receiving and participating in resolving petitions, the representative of the Provincial Citizen Reception Committee also warned of some risks leading to citizens filing complaints and lawsuits during the land acquisition and compensation process, such as falsifying records, documents, and false declarations to receive compensation; there are even cases where officials intentionally apply incorrect policies and regulations in resolving resettlement compensation...

Regarding the recommendations to the monitoring delegation, Vice Chairman of Vinh City People's Committee Ha Thanh Tinh said that it is necessary to study so that the compensation price for land acquisition is close to the market price; advise on arranging staff for the Citizen Reception Committee to operate professionally; invest in software to monitor and process unified petitions at all levels to facilitate searching and coordination in handling.

On behalf of the monitoring delegation, Deputy Head of the Provincial National Assembly Delegation Tran Van Mao concluded the meeting acknowledging the efforts of the Vinh City People's Committee in enforcing the law on receiving citizens, resolving complaints and denunciations related to land acquisition and compensation for site clearance to implement projects.

Pointing out some shortcomings and limitations, the Deputy Head of the Provincial National Assembly Delegation suggested that the city continue to pay attention to directing and enhancing dialogue with the people related to this issue; at the same time, strengthen facilities, arrange reasonable staffing for the Citizen Reception Committee; regularly do a good job of propaganda for the people and training for officials.

In particular, the Deputy Head of the Provincial National Assembly Delegation requested the city to strictly follow the procedures and comply with the law in the process of land recovery for projects; do a better job of publicizing projects to the people; inspect and examine outstanding and prolonged complaints and denunciations and strictly implement the conclusions after inspection and examination.
