At the online conference, many localities proposed that the Provincial People's Committee and the Department of Natural Resources and Environment pay attention to resolving many issues to promote the implementation of tasks in 2018.

Mr. Vo Van Hung - Vice Chairman of the People's Committee of Cua Lo town stated that currently, there are still 600 pending land use right certificate applications in the area; besides the fact that people have not completed the application procedures, the most difficult problem is that some applications are due to land being granted beyond authority but not in accordance with the planning. Therefore, the province is requested to propose to the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment to have a mechanism to resolve this issue.

According to Mr. Nguyen Thanh Hai - Vice Chairman of Nghi Loc District People's Committee, there are over 5,000 pending files in the district, the most difficult of which is the lack of original files to prove that financial obligations have been fulfilled, making it difficult for the district.

Regarding the issuance of agricultural land use right certificates, representatives of Vinh city, Nghia Dan district, and Quynh Luu district requested the Department of Natural Resources and Environment to direct consulting units to measure cadastral maps to issue land use right certificates...

Explaining the issues of concern to localities, Director of the Department of Natural Resources and Environment Vo Duy Viet requested localities to continue reviewing and classifying the types of backlog of land use right certificates for households; focusing on files that can be resolved, and proposing to the Department any problematic files for joint handling.

The Department of Natural Resources and Environment continues to establish 3 working groups to directly direct, urge, guide and support localities to effectively carry out the tasks of the sector in 2018.

Speaking at the conference, in addition to appreciating the contributions as well as pointing out some limitations that need to be overcome, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Dinh Viet Hong requested the Department of Natural Resources and Environment of the province to focus on reviewing and gathering difficulties and problems arising from practice to develop and complete drafts on amending and supplementing regulations of the Provincial People's Committee on implementing the 2013 Land Law in the direction of reforming administrative procedures, paying special attention to compensation policies when the State reclaims land and grants certificates to people; overcoming shortcomings in the process of attracting investment, promoting investment attraction, and improving the provincial PCI competitiveness index.
