Talking to reporters, Mr. Hoang Xuan Minh (Dong Bang hamlet, Dong Hop commune, Quy Hop district) said: In 1995, his family had a decision to allocate land for long-term housing by the People's Committee of Quy Hop district. However, in 2019, when completing the procedures for granting a land use right certificate, he was notified that he had to pay more than 140 million VND in land use fees and registration fees on the grounds that the district's land allocation decision was "invalid". Wishing to have a "land certificate", his family paid the money as notified, but during the process of completing the documents, the authorities required his family to pay more than 28 million VND. He found that unreasonable, because in 1995, his family had fulfilled its financial obligations, had a land use fee receipt and was allocated land by the People's Committee of the district; now, when making a land use right certificate, he had to fulfill the financial obligations once again...
The above incident was reported by Mr. Minh to the Provincial People's Council delegates at the meeting with voters on July 26, 2021 in Dong Hop commune. Immediately after the meeting with voters, comrade Nguyen Nhu Khoi - Member of the Provincial Party Executive Committee, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Council personally directed the People's Aspirations Department, the Office of the National Assembly Delegation and the Provincial People's Council to investigate and study the incident reported by voters, the regulations of the Central Government and the province to advise the Standing Committee of the Provincial People's Council to issue a document requesting the People's Committee of Quy Hop district to resolve and respond to the opinions reported by voters.
After 3 months, Mr. Minh's family and a number of households paid the land fee, received a land use fee receipt, and were refunded the additional amount by the People's Committee of Quy Hop district and issued land use right certificates. Mr. Hoang Xuan Minh said: "The voice of our people has touched the hearts of the elected representatives, they truly fulfilled their role of representing the legitimate interests and being the reliable support of the people!"
Regarding the issue of granting land use right certificates, in response to practical requirements, since September 2021, the Standing Committee of Nghe An Provincial People's Council has organized a session to explain this issue. After the session, the Standing Committee of Nghe An Provincial People's Council issued Notice No. 219/TB-HDND.TT dated October 8, 2021 on the situation of granting certificates of land use rights, house ownership rights and other assets attached to land in Nghe An province. In order to implement the above notice, the Provincial People's Committee has promptly issued documents for implementation such as: Plan to resolve the backlog of granting certificates of land use rights, house ownership rights and other assets attached to land for households and individuals; Decision to authorize the People's Committees of districts, cities and towns to determine financial obligations for cases of land allocation without proper authority and land allocation with proper authority...
Not only stopping at organizing a explanatory session and then issuing a Notice of conclusion of the explanation, but after 9 months of organizing a explanatory session on this content, in June 2022, the Standing Committee of the People's Council of Nghe An province continued to hold a meeting to listen to a report on the results of the implementation. Acknowledging that the situation of granting Certificates of land use rights, house ownership rights and assets attached to land in Nghe An province has had some changes, the Standing Committee of the Provincial People's Council also frankly assessed that the implementation results are still slow. Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Chairman of the People's Council of Nghe An province Thai Thanh Quy requested: The Provincial People's Committee, relevant departments, branches and localities need to continue to focus highly, closely follow the plan of the Provincial People's Committee for implementation. In particular, at the district level, it is necessary to propose to the Standing Committee of the district, city and town Party Committees to directly direct the implementation. The Standing Committee of the Provincial People's Council will closely monitor until the outstanding issues are resolved.
Mr. Hoang Quoc Viet - Member of the Provincial Party Executive Committee, Director of the Department of Natural Resources and Environment said: After the Standing Committee of the Provincial People's Council organized a explanatory session, issued a Notice of conclusion of the explanatory session and the Provincial People's Committee issued Plan No. 815 for implementation, the Department of Natural Resources and Environment identified this as a key topic of the sector to focus on leading, directing, guiding, accompanying the districts; district level accompanies the communes, to deploy and promptly remove obstacles, "bottlenecks", mobilizing the entire political system to participate. Thereby, the work of granting certificates of land use rights and ownership of houses in backlog for households and individuals in Nghe An province has achieved many outstanding results, such as granting certificates of land use rights and ownership of houses in real estate business projects in the province exceeding the target assigned by the Provincial People's Committee, reaching 131.2% for apartment buildings (3,788/plan 2,886 units) and 89% for townhouses and villas (while the assigned target is from 65 - 80% of eligible backlog cases)...
Not only with voters' petitions but also with any problem arising in real life, the delegates and elected agencies in Nghe An all get involved with a spirit of enthusiasm, responsibility, sticking to the end, solving the root cause with the belief that once being a representative of the people, elected by the people, they must be closer to the people, attached to the people and determined for the people.
Demonstrating the pursuit of practical issues that are causing public concern, at the regular meeting at the end of 2021, the Provincial People's Council questioned the State management of minerals in the province. Nearly a year later, in September, October and November 2022, the Provincial People's Council continued to establish a delegation and organize the supervision of State management of minerals in the province and issued Resolution No. 72, dated December 9, 2022 on strengthening State management of minerals. On that basis, the Provincial People's Committee issued Plan No. 54 to implement the Resolution of the Provincial People's Council, assigning specific tasks to each level and each sector. Nghe An Provincial Party Committee also issued Directive No. 20, dated December 28, 2022 on strengthening the Party's leadership over State management of minerals in the province.
Directly choosing hot issues and difficult tasks to monitor, with the view that it must go to the end, not hesitating to raise the issue with the Provincial People's Committee, departments, branches and localities to resolve, the Provincial People's Council has organized thematic monitoring sessions on "suspended projects" and slow-progress projects in Nghe An province. This is a prominent issue that has been reflected by many voters, because there are many projects that have not been implemented by investors for many years, while other enterprises that want to invest do not have land, which greatly affects people's livelihoods and slows down local development. After the monitoring sessions, on July 14, 2022, at the 4th session, the 18th Provincial People's Council issued Resolution No. 31/NQ-HDND on "Strengthening state management of suspended projects, slow-progress projects and projects using land for the wrong purpose in Nghe An province".
In the coastal town of Cua Lo - where a number of "suspended projects" have just been revoked, Mr. Nguyen Hong Quang - Vice Chairman of the People's Council of Cua Lo town said: Through the supervision of the Provincial People's Council, all levels and sectors have taken more drastic measures in reviewing, checking, and evaluating the construction progress as well as proposing solutions to handle projects that are behind schedule.
