Nghe An strengthens Party leadership to promote implementation of Project 06

In recent times, Party committees, Party organizations, and authorities at all levels have paid attention to leading and directing the implementation of the Project on developing applications of population data, identification, and electronic authentication to serve national digital transformation in the period of 2022 - 2025, with a vision to 2030 (abbreviated as Project 06), initially achieving positive results. The effectiveness of Project 06 has made an important contribution to administrative reform and digital transformation.

To date, 23/25 essential public services have been implemented; the province has issued more than 2.66 million citizen identification cards and more than 1.46 million electronic identification accounts; effectively implemented the payment of social security regimes and policies for poor and near-poor households; paid tuition fees by non-cash methods... In particular, the rate of administrative procedures performed online and online payments has changed a lot.

However, the implementation of Project 06 has revealed some shortcomings and limitations: The awareness of some Party committees, Party organizations, authorities, cadres, party members and people about the implementation of the Project is not complete; some units and localities are not resolute in inspecting, supervising and urging the implementation of Project 06 according to their functions and tasks; cadres and civil servants have not actively converted the method of solving work from manual to applying information technology, electronic environment, are afraid of innovation, afraid of learning. Propaganda and guidance work to help people and businesses clearly understand the values ​​and benefits of Project 06, especially in handling administrative procedures and online public services, has led to a high rate of directly resolved records, in some localities, there are no records submitted online. The progress of implementing some tasks of Project 06 is still slow. The process of receiving, processing and returning administrative procedure results has not been updated and synchronized with the provincial administrative procedure settlement information system; the digitization of data, records and results of administrative procedure settlement at departments, branches and localities is still slow, not meeting the requirements, connecting and sharing data to serve the settlement of administrative procedures and public services. Facilities, equipment, working conditions and human resources to implement Project 06 are still difficult, limited and do not meet the requirements; the allocation of funds to invest in infrastructure and technical equipment for Project 06 by a number of agencies, units and localities has not received attention...
