Regarding the Ministry of Planning and Investment, the Working Group stated that the Ministry's leaders need to be more closely involved in directing the implementation of a number of tasks assigned by the Government and the Prime Minister. In building and perfecting institutions, instead of the idea of ​​pulling authority back to the Ministry and the mechanism of asking and giving, the Ministry needs to strongly decentralize the management of public investment capital; review and remove all barriers and sub-licenses that cause trouble for people and businesses.

Following the Prime Minister's direction, the Ministry of Finance needs to continue to change the way of making and approving budget revenue estimates, ensuring publicity, transparency, and closeness to reality. End the situation where local leaders "ask" for low budget estimates in order to have a higher revenue surplus than the estimate. Continue to reform administration more strongly in the tax and customs sector, tighten discipline and order in this sector. Take the satisfaction of people and businesses as a measure of the effectiveness of the tax and customs sector's operations.

The Ministry of Finance needs to urgently implement tasks related to institutions and policies, especially the development of a Decree on anti-transfer pricing and tax evasion, a Resolution on improving the business environment and enhancing national competitiveness for the two years 2016-2017...
