Examining the draft resolution on the policy of converting forest use to other purposes to implement projects in Nghe An province, the meeting participants basically agreed with the content presented by the Provincial People's Committee.
Specifically, the purpose of using more than 3 hectares of forest was changed to other purposes to implement 3 projects: The project of traffic roads connecting the western mountainous communes of Quynh Luu district; Sub-project of upgrading inter-commune traffic roads, from Thanh Son commune (Anh Son district) to Ba Ha village, Thach Ngan commune (Con Cuong district), under the project "Basic infrastructure for comprehensive development of Nghe An, Ha Tinh, Quang Binh and Quang Tri provinces" - Nghe An province sub-project; Project of building pumping stations and canal systems in Son Thanh commune (Yen Thanh district) and Nghi Van commune (Nghi Loc district).
However, the issue raised by the Economic - Budget Committee is the need to pay attention to reforestation for the forest area converted to implement 3 projects within the scope of the draft resolution as well as the forest areas that have been converted so far in the province.
The Economic - Budget Committee also reviewed and agreed on the content of the People's Committee's submission of two draft resolutions, including: Resolution to abolish Resolution No. 24/2016/NQ-HDND dated August 4, 2016 of the Provincial People's Council on collecting money for protection and development of rice-growing land in Nghe An province.
The Resolution stipulates the application of legal documents to a number of contents regulated by the Law on Public Investment, the Law amending and supplementing a number of articles of the Law on Planning, the Law on Investment, the Law on Investment under the form of public-private partnership and the Law on Bidding and Resolution No. 137/2024/QH15 dated June 26, 2024 of the National Assembly on piloting a number of specific mechanisms and policies for the development of Nghe An province. In particular, the agencies responsible for consulting on drafting and researching to adjust a number of provisions to ensure strictness in wording and legal regulations.
