Nghe An Front has many key, central and substantial monitoring activities.

Strengthening supervision of cadres and party members

In November 2023, through grasping public opinion, the Fatherland Front of Thanh Nho commune (Thanh Chuong) sent a document to the Party Committee and the People's Committee of the commune, reflecting on two leading officials, one from the government sector, who had inappropriate statements towards subordinate officials and one from the mass organization sector who had not set an example in clearing traffic corridors. On that basis, the Standing Committee of the Party Committee of the commune worked directly with these two individuals to clarify whether or not there was a reflection from the people; at the same time, directed and assigned the officials to correct the situation and the Fatherland Front of the commune continued to monitor the officials' correction.

In addition to the above two cases, from the end of 2022 to present, the Fatherland Front of Thanh Nho commune has also sent a document reflecting to the Party Committee, the government and the hamlet Party Committee about 6 commune cadres, civil servants and non-professional workers in the hamlet, about the lack of serious compliance with working hours of commune civil servants, people waiting for civil servants, and lack of responsibility in guiding people to carry out administrative procedures, the quality of work completion in some contents is low.

Comrade Nguyen Hong Son - Secretary of Thanh Nho Commune Party Committee said: The issues reflected by the people through the synthesis and recommendations of the Commune Fatherland Front were all verified by the Standing Committee of the Commune Party Committee through working with cadres, civil servants, and party members to contribute opinions and affirm that the people's reflections were very accurate and seriously resolved, contributing to enhancing the role, responsibility, public ethics, discipline, administrative discipline of cadres and civil servants and spreading the pioneering and exemplary style and lifestyle of cadres and party members in residential areas.

In addition to monthly comments to cadres and party members through suggestion boxes in each residential area and through collecting information and opinions from the people's Front Working Committees in hamlets and organizations and unions at the commune level; according to Mr. Tran Van Hung - Chairman of the Fatherland Front Committee of Thanh Nho commune: Every year, before the year-end review conference of the collective and individuals in the Party Committee, the Standing Committee of the Fatherland Front Committee of the commune organizes a conference of members of the Fatherland Front Committee of the commune, member organizations, and advisory groups of the Front to listen to people's opinions through "representative" organizations and individuals to give comments to the Party Committee and the government; contributing to strengthening and improving the Party's direction on a number of Party regulations and decisions, managing cadres and party members and for the government, improving the quality of State management, especially in the fields of land and civil servant management, creating a change in working style and manners, taking people's satisfaction as a measure to evaluate cadres and civil servants.

The supervision of the moral training and lifestyle of leaders, key officials, cadres and party members according to Regulation No. 124, dated February 2, 2018 of the Central Party Secretariat is of interest to the Fatherland Front at all levels in the province. In addition to the form of regular supervision through grasping people's opinions through the "channel" of the Front on cadres and party members; in some localities, direct supervision has also been implemented through the establishment of supervision teams.

In Quynh Luu district, the district Fatherland Front directs the grassroots Fatherland Front to collect votes on people's satisfaction with commune-level cadres and civil servants at the end of the year; units with high rates of people's dissatisfaction will be included in the following year's monitoring plan on the performance of duties by heads of Party committees, authorities, key leaders and commune-level cadres and civil servants. Monitoring is based on the weekly, monthly, quarterly and annual workload of each cadre and civil servant to evaluate according to specific quantitative criteria.

Or in localities such as Hoang Mai town, Hung Nguyen, Thanh Chuong..., a delegation was established to supervise the cultivation, training of ethics, and lifestyle of leaders, key officials, cadres, and party members...

Comrade Tran Van Lam - Standing Member, Head of the Democracy - Law Committee, Provincial Fatherland Front Committee affirmed: From strengthening the supervision of the Front, especially at the grassroots level, over cadres and party members, it has contributed to creating positive changes in leadership, management, and organization of the implementation of political tasks at each level and each locality in a more systematic manner; awareness and responsibility for the work of cadres and civil servants have been raised. The trust and consensus of the people towards the Party Committees, authorities, and political systems at all levels have increased, thereby promoting the implementation of political tasks at each level, each sector, locality and the whole province.

The Head of the Democracy and Law Committee of the Provincial Fatherland Front Committee also frankly stated: The supervision work still has difficulties and limitations. Regarding the subjectivity of the Front, a number of cadres doing supervision work still have a fear of conflict, do not dare to express their opinions; the qualifications and capacity of some cadres are limited.

Objectively, the Central's regulations on supervision by the Front, socio-political organizations and people over cadres, party members and cadre work are not clear and the current form of supervision is mainly through observation, research, communication, receiving information, reporting, reflecting public opinion, etc., so it is very difficult to organize, implement and bring about effectiveness.

Some Party committees have not really paid attention to leading and directing the Front, socio-political organizations and the people in supervising the Party organization, supervising the cultivation and training of ethics and lifestyle of leaders, key officials and cadres and Party members.

Stick to reality to monitor

Along with the concern to deploy the supervision of cadres and party members according to Regulation No. 124, dated February 2, 2018 of the Central Party Secretariat; in recent times, the Fatherland Front at all levels in the province has also closely followed the practical life to organize in-depth supervision of the issues raised.

Typically, at the provincial level, through grasping public opinion and proposals of the Que Phong District Fatherland Front for the Hua Na Hydropower Project after 13 years of implementation, compensation and resettlement support work still has many shortcomings, directly affecting the rights of the people; the Provincial Fatherland Front has stepped in to monitor this content.

Based on the monitoring results, the Standing Committee of the Provincial Fatherland Front Committee has sent a document to the Prime Minister, the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front and central ministries and branches to resolve the issue. Up to now, the recommendations of the Nghe An Front have basically been resolved, ensuring the legitimate rights of the people.

Along with the supervision related to the Hua Na Hydropower Project, in recent times, the Provincial Fatherland Front has also been concerned; focusing on urgent issues, directly related to the legitimate and legal rights and interests of the people, such as supervising the implementation of policies to support people affected by the Covid-19 epidemic; supervising the work of receiving citizens, handling complaints and denunciations of the Chairman of the District People's Committee; environmental pollution, health services, education...

Mr. Nguyen Duc Thanh - Vice Chairman of the Provincial Fatherland Front Committee affirmed: Many monitoring contents have brought positive results, helping competent agencies promptly overcome shortcomings, helping local Party committees and authorities to remove many difficulties and inadequacies in performing their tasks, while protecting the legitimate rights and interests of the people. However, this work has not yet met the requirements, requiring the Front at all levels to continue to consider innovation; in which, focusing on reviewing the contents and areas that voters and people are interested in to advise and develop an annual monitoring plan with focus, key points, depth and substance.
