From the series of issues raised above, some opinions suggested that the Standing Committee of Do Luong District Party Committee should arrange, assign and streamline some positions in communes and hamlets. Mr. Nguyen Thai Sy - Secretary of Yen Dinh hamlet Party Cell, Yen Son commune cited that in some positions such as justice - civil status, land administration - construction - environment, 2 people are currently assigned, but in reality only 1 person is needed; or 3 positions of agricultural civil servant, agricultural extension officer, veterinary officer should also be arranged in the direction of 1 agricultural civil servant to concurrently hold the remaining 2 jobs.

Besides, the semi-professional team at the commune level is still too large and needs to be considered to perform some part-time positions.
