In 2016 alone, the agency proposed settlement measures on nearly VND 38.78 trillion (USD 1.66 billion), 1.8 times higher than that in 2015, recording the highest result in 22 years.
In 2017, the State Audit helped increase State budget collection by nearly VND 4 trillion (USD 172 million), while suggesting financial handling on VND 6 trillion (USD 258 million). The agency’s SOEs value assessment auditing results showed a rise of over VND 9 trillion (USD 387 million) in State capital in SOEs.
Besides, many problems in management and use of public assets were discovered for timely settlement.
For the 2011-2015 period, the State Audit found that as of December 31, 2015, only 96.3 percent of the set target in SOE restructuring for the period was completed. It also pointed out problems of the remaining firms, including wrongdoings in restructuring and divestment process.
In this period, the handing over of State ownership representative rights at enterprises belonging to ministries, sectors and provincial People’s Committee to the State Capital Investment Corporation (SCIC) got slower, found the agency which added that the implementation of targets in management, trading and investment of State capital in enterprises in line with the focusing of capital to prioritized sector remained inefficient.
On the basis of the findings, the State Audit proposed to the Government and the Prime Minister to separate the State ownership representative rights and State management over capital, and giving the rights to the SCIC.
The agency also asked ministries to adjust management mechanisms, policies and solutions, while giving enterprises recommendations to overcome problems in equitization and divestment in line with the approved plans.
