The plan also clearly states the scope, subjects and time of taking the vote of confidence; the composition of the vote of confidence; the criteria, process and responsibilities of collectives and individuals in taking the vote of confidence and the publicity and use of the results of the vote of confidence, including:

Regarding the timing of taking the vote of confidence: It is conducted periodically in the third year (the year between the terms of the Party Congresses at all levels), specifically as follows: Taking a vote of confidence for positions elected or approved by the National Assembly and People's Councils at all levels is carried out according to the provisions of the National Assembly; taking a vote of confidence for leadership positions at all levels is carried out after taking a vote of confidence for positions elected by People's Councils at all levels; taking a vote of confidence for other leadership and management positions and positions is carried out after the first 6-month review of the third year between the terms of the Party Congresses at all levels. In 2023, Party committees, Party organizations, agencies, leading units and organizations will take a vote of confidence for positions of officials under their management and synthesize and report to the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee before August 31, 2023.

Regarding the use of the results of the vote of confidence, there are also higher requirements for leaders and managers in leadership, direction and implementation of tasks, specifically: In cases where more than 50% but less than 2/3 of the votes of confidence are low, the competent authority in charge of managing cadres will remove them from the planning of higher positions, consider removing them from the current position, assign them to other work or resign them or conduct a vote of confidence according to regulations; in cases where 2/3 or more of the votes of confidence are low, the competent authority in charge of managing cadres will remove them from the current position and assign them to other work (lower) without waiting until the end of the term or appointment period.
