As of October 31, 2017, the province has granted new licenses to 152 projects with a total registered investment capital of VND 13,945 billion. 14 projects have been adjusted with an increased capital of VND 303.03 billion. It is expected that in 2017, 170 projects will be attracted with a total registered investment capital of about VND 24 trillion.

However, site clearance for some projects in the area is still difficult. The main reason is that the compensation, support and resettlement policies when the state reclaims agricultural land under the provisions of the 2013 Land Law are much different from the 2003 Land Law, especially the issue of reclaiming agricultural land in Vinh city and neighboring districts.

Some localities have not paid attention to compensation, support and resettlement, especially the construction of resettlement areas has not been timely. Some problems in land management from the past have been left behind, such as: encroachment on land originating from forestry farms, causing difficulties in compensation and support; land allocation beyond authority, not in accordance with planning.

Based on production and infrastructure arrangement, calculating capital sources in 2017, striving to mobilize investment capital for construction and infrastructure in the area in 2018 of about 65,000 billion VND, an increase of about 12% compared to 2017.

Discussing at the meeting, delegates shared many opinions about public investment: Leaders of the Department of Education and Training said that the province needs to pay attention to investing in the school system, including investing in the construction of Huynh Thuc Khang and Phan Boi Chau High Schools.

The Department of Transport proposed that the province soon continue to invest in key transport projects: Thai Hoa Town to Hoang Mai Town and some other routes.

The Department of Agriculture and Rural Development recommends that to limit outstanding debts in basic construction, the province should select necessary projects for complete investment, and should not invest widely.

Next, members of the Provincial People's Committee listened to the draft resolution on the assignment of civil servant positions in state administrative agencies and organizations of Nghe An province in 2018. The draft resolution on approving the total number of employees in public service units in 2018.

Accordingly, the number of civil servants in the State administrative agencies and organizations of the People's Councils and People's Committees at the provincial and district levels in 2018 is 3,615 people. The total number of people working in public service units in 2018 is approved to be 62,253 people.

Regarding this draft, many members disagreed, because each industry has its own characteristics, especially education and health care which are in dire need of more human resources to perform professional tasks.

Also this afternoon, delegates heard a report on foreign affairs work in 2017, directions and tasks in 2018 and the Draft Resolution of the Provincial People's Council approving the total number of employees in public service units and associations in 2018.
