Dear delegates and voters!

The 31st session - the regular mid-year session of the Provincial People's Council in 2025 is a very important session, pivotal in two aspects; this is the first session after Nghe An province completed the arrangement of administrative units and officially operated the 2-level local government model (province, commune); we are entering the last 6 months of the term of implementing the Resolution of the 19th Provincial Party Congress, a time when high unity and drastic, synchronous actions are needed to reach the right destination, at the right level. From July 1, 2025, the 2-level administrative unit apparatus officially came into operation, marking a new development stage of the country.

Up to now, the operations of the new commune and ward governments in the area have been basically smooth and stable; the staff and civil servants at the grassroots level have promptly caught up with their work with higher determination and greater responsibility in the spirit of serving the people; the settlement of administrative procedures for the people has been quick and uninterrupted. The Provincial People's Council has acknowledged and highly appreciated the efforts of all levels, sectors and agencies in the political system who have actively and promptly completed the preparations and implementation of the two-level government model; at the same time, sincerely thanked the high support and consensus of voters and people of the province, contributing to the overall results of the province in implementing the policies of the Party and State, ensuring progress and quality, ready for our country to develop and rise up in the new era of development.

The first,Assess the implementation of socio-economic development tasks; estimate budget revenue and expenditure; implement public investment plan for the first 6 months of the year and key tasks and solutions for the last 6 months of 2025.

In the first 6 months of the year, along with the drastic and urgent implementation of the organizational restructuring revolution, all levels and sectors have made efforts to carry out the socio-economic development tasks, achieving many positive and quite comprehensive results in all fields: The growth rate of total product in the province in the first 6 months of the year is estimated at 8.24%.(ranked 12th/34 provinces and cities; first in the North Central sub-region)), budget revenue reached 13,890 billion VND, reaching 78.4% of the estimate, up 14.5% over the same period in 2024; investment attraction achieved positive results; public investment disbursement was higher than the same period in 2024.

However, in addition to the achieved results, there are still some shortcomings and limitations such as: The economy has grown quite well but has not yet met the set scenario, creating pressure on the completion of the growth scenario for the remaining quarters, striving to achieve the growth target for 2025 still has many challenges; production and business activities of enterprises still face many difficulties. The progress of implementing a number of key projects and works in the area, disbursement of public investment capital from some sources is still slow. Attracting FDI to economic zones and industrial parks has not achieved high results, lower than the same period. State management of natural resources and environment is still inadequate; the overload situation in a number of hospitals, the situation of medical and pharmaceutical establishments without practice licenses has not been completely overcome; skilled and highly skilled human resources have not met the needs of enterprises. Provincial competitiveness index (PCI), administrative reform index (PAR INDEX), public administration governance index (PAPI), and local innovation index (PII) have not improved and have decreased in rankings compared to the previous year...
