(Baonghean.vn) - After 7 years of implementing the Project on rearranging grassroots party organizations (TCCSĐ), the party organization system of Nghe An province continues to be consolidated and developed. However, the process of implementing the Project on rearranging grassroots party organizations in the province has revealed a number of limitations that need to be overcome.

Nghe An Provincial Party Committee currently has 28 Party Committees directly under the Provincial Party Committee, including 21 district, city and town Party Committees, 7 affiliated Party Committees (5 grassroots Party Committees, 2 grassroots Party Committees) and 1,565 grassroots Party organizations.

INITIAL RESULTS OF IMPLEMENTING THE ORGANIZATIONAL RESTRUCTURING OF THE PARTY BASE

At present, Party committees at all levels are implementing the Resolution of the 6th Central Conference (Term XII), according to which the arrangement of the apparatus of the political system is closely linked to the synchronous arrangement of specialized agencies and units and requires the rearrangement of the Party organization to suit the new situation. On August 14, 2019, the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee issued Project No. 19-DA/TU on "Arranging the Party Organization of Nghe An Province in the period of 2019-2020".

On the basis of the Project on reorganizing the provincial Party organization, in recent times, the district, city, town Party Committees and affiliated Party Committees have developed plans to reorganize the Party organization, assigned Party Committees and responsible cadres, and implemented them relatively seriously and synchronously.

The Provincial Agencies Bloc Party Committee has received the Party organization transferred from Vinh City Party Committee; directed the merger of Party organizations to departments for unified management (received 3 grassroots Party organizations from Vinh City; merged 19 Party organizations to Party Committees of departments and branches; downgraded 10 Party Committees; received 18 Party organizations to Party Committees of departments).

The Party Committee of the Enterprise Bloc transfers and receives grassroots party organizations according to plan, establishes new grassroots party organizations in enterprises, and dissolves party organizations according to the Party Charter.

Party committees of the armed forces: Dissolve the Party Committee of the Fire Prevention and Fighting Police of Nghe An province (according to Decision No. 2327-QD/TU, dated February 20, 2018 of the Provincial Party Committee) and transfer the grassroots party organizations to the Provincial Police Party Committee. The Provincial Police Party Committee has merged and dissolved from 34 grassroots party organizations to 28 grassroots party organizations; transferred party activities for a number of party members to the district-level police party committee...

LIMITATIONS AND PROBLEMS THAT NEED TO BE RESOLVED

In addition to the above results and advantages, after 7 years of implementing the Project, some limitations and inadequacies have been revealed. These include a number of agencies and units directly under the Central Government but have not been transferred to the Party Committee of the Provincial Agencies Bloc and the Party Committees of provincial departments and branches; the model of party organization in public universities under the province is not unified; a number of party organizations in medium-sized and larger state-owned enterprises located in districts, cities and towns have not been transferred to the Party Committee of the Enterprise Bloc.

Newly established small-scale enterprises have many shortcomings in establishing subordinate party organizations. Some small-scale enterprises are located in the district but the party organizations are not directly under the district level, which limits the coordination of activities in implementing political tasks in the area. Some grassroots party cells have been separated and newly established in the spirit of the Project, but the process of operation has changed in terms of organization, leading to shortcomings and overlaps because the expertise is under the management of the provincial vertical sector (departments and branches) but the party organization is managed by the district party committee.

The grassroots units of the type of agencies and public service units are managed by the superior sectors in terms of professional tasks, payroll, and salary funds, but there is no unity in the management mechanism, so the Party organizations are sometimes directly under the Party Committee of the Provincial Agencies Bloc, sometimes under the Party Committee of departments and branches, and sometimes under the district, city, and town Party Committees, making leadership and direction difficult.

The downgrading and transferring of some grassroots party organizations to the direct management of the party committees of departments and branches still faces difficulties in arranging full-time staff (without a payroll) and allowances for the party committees (because except for the party committees in blocks, hamlets, and villages, only the grassroots party committees and above are entitled to allowances).

GOALS, PRINCIPLES, PLAN AND SOLUTIONS IN THE SPIRIT OF THE NEW PROJECT

The project "Organizational organization arrangement for the period 2019-2020" identifies the goal of creating favorable conditions for Party committees and grassroots organizations to lead and direct the proper implementation of functions and tasks according to regulations; manage closely, synchronously, scientifically; ensure stability and not cause major disruption.

To rationally arrange the party organization system to be unified with the professional organization system, the Project of the Provincial Party Standing Committee stipulates the principle: Grassroots party organizations that have been properly arranged according to the Party Charter and are reasonable will remain the same.

For party organizations in agencies and public service units managed by the Central Government, they will be transferred to the Provincial Party Committee for management; party organizations of public universities under the province will be transferred to the Vinh City Party Committee for management.

For party organizations in large-scale state-owned enterprises or enterprises operating in many districts, they shall be transferred to the Provincial Enterprise Bloc Party Committee for management; party organizations in small-scale enterprises located in a district shall be transferred to and directly under the management of that district, city or town Party Committee.

Agencies, units, and localities that are restructuring their organizational apparatus will reorganize the corresponding party organization (the name will be decided by the competent authority). Some party organizations under the district level are restructuring their professional and regional apparatuses, and will transfer the management to vertical party organizations. Synchronously implement the restructuring of grassroots party organizations and the restructuring of mass organizations to ensure unity in leadership of mass organizations.

ON THE PLAN FOR ORGANIZING THE BASIC PARTY ORGANIZATION

Provincial Agencies Bloc Party Committee: Receive the Party organizations of agencies and public service units managed by the Central Government from under the Vinh City Party Committee to be directly under the Provincial Agencies Bloc Party Committee to concentrate direct management at a superior level, creating favorable conditions for operations as well as linking with professional tasks.

Transfer the Party Cell of the Health Protection Board of Cadres to the Provincial General Hospital Party Committee. Provide guidance on transferring activities for retired Party members working at professional social organizations under the management of departments and branches in their locality of residence. If the remaining Party members have enough numbers, they will establish Party organizations under the Party Committees of departments and branches.

Provincial Business Bloc Party Committee: Receives grassroots party organizations which are large-scale state-owned enterprises transferred by the district level. Receives party organizations transferred by provincial, municipal, and central party committees.
