Concluding the event, N.A. Vice Chairman Tran Thanh Man said the N.A. Standing Committee basically agreed with the Government’s report.

Man also urged stepping up the disbursement of capital especially for the three national target programs, major and important national projects, along with inter-regional connectivity, climate change adaptation and urgent local projects.
According to the N.A. Vice Chairman, policies should be put in place to ensure a balance between supply and demand, and to stabilize commodity prices. A comprehensive review of laws, regulations, decrees, and circulars should also be carried out to identify and promptly resolve any issues. The role of the State Audit Office of Vietnam in inspecting and supervising the management and use of public finances and assets should be strengthened.
