Nghe An Provincial People's Council proposed to remove obstacles in new rural construction

Planning, adjustment and implementation work are still limited; planning is not linked to resources, feasibility, overlaps and is slow to be adjusted..

The implementation of some components, targets and criteria still faces many difficulties and does not match reality such as restructuring the agricultural sector, rural economy, production organization, income... especially in mountainous districts, leading to the influence of people's policies, leading to a mentality of not wanting to build new rural areas.

The appraisal work to recognize units that meet the new rural standards has a number of criteria and contents that are not of high quality or difficult to complete to meet the requirements. Through monitoring in districts and communes, the criteria such as: Average income per capita; collection, transportation and treatment of solid waste; health insurance; criteria for reducing forms of law violations while violations are increasingly sophisticated and unpredictable, especially high-tech fraud crimes.

Although the work of arranging and managing public assets after merging administrative units has been focused on, up to now, some places still face many difficulties and problems, such as in implementing criteria on cultural facilities for new rural construction, some cultural houses, works, cultural and sports venues serving the community are left empty, wasting resources contributed by the people.

The implementation of the Central Budget capital plan to support the implementation of the Program for the 2021 - 2025 period is still slow, lacking resources to implement policies while the mobilization of internal resources in some localities is not strong enough.

Land accumulation and construction of large-scale fields still face many difficulties and obstacles in implementation.

Besides, coordination between levels, sectors and the participation of the entire political system is sometimes uneven and lacks determination.

Many OCOP products are produced mainly by hand, with outdated technological equipment; the application of scientific and technical advances in production is still limited, quality and design do not meet the increasingly high demands of the market. Trade promotion, introduction and promotion of OCOP products have not been properly promoted.

To effectively implement the New Rural Development Program, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Nguyen Van De said that in the coming time, all levels and sectors will continue to promote the implementation of Directive No. 13-CT/TU dated December 3, 2022 of the Provincial Party Standing Committee. At the same time, continue to promote and improve the quality of propaganda work and organize the emulation movement "Nghe An joins hands to build new rural areas".

Integrate and mobilize resources to implement the Quality Improvement Program, effectively use resources, especially socialization to build new rural areas.

At the same time, implement 06 specialized programs under the direction of the Central Government to promote the potential and advantages of each region and locality. On the other hand, direct localities to perform well the maintenance and repair work, ensure to maintain and improve the implementation of achieved criteria, and at the same time pay attention to the content of new rural criteria at the village and hamlet level.

Reviewing mechanisms and policies to encourage agricultural development

In particular, direct the review of a number of mechanisms and policies to encourage the development of the agricultural sector, advise the Provincial People's Council to amend and supplement the Resolutions on agricultural development policies in a focused direction, create motivation for agricultural development and ensure adequate resources for implementation.

Review all types of planning such as regional planning, district planning, commune planning, forest planning, land planning... to ensure consistency with provincial planning, have appropriate handling and adjustment plans between plans, especially newly approved plans.

Localities need to pay attention to improving the quality of completing the criteria for new rural construction, especially the criteria on income, labor, production organization and rural economic development. Focus on building new rural hamlets, villages and hamlets, especially in disadvantaged areas and ethnic minority areas to lay the foundation for building sustainable and effective new rural communes.

Comrade Nguyen Nhu Khoi suggested that localities re-evaluate the performance of cooperatives in the province, especially agricultural cooperatives, to promptly remove difficulties and obstacles and have appropriate policies.

Focus on improving the quality of OCOP products, pay more attention to brand building, diversify product promotion forms; proactively seek output for OCOP products.

Improve the quality of appraisal, collect opinions, and recognize units that meet new rural standards; have a plan to re-appraise units that have met new rural standards at all levels, and re-appraise the quality of OCOP products according to regulations to ensure sustainable goals during the implementation of the Program.

Closely and resolutely direct and manage to remove difficulties and obstacles, speed up the process and procedures for handling waste treatment plant and water plant projects that have submitted documents such as: Do Luong waste treatment plant, Bac Dien Chau water plant.
