Recognising administrative reform as one of the key tasks, units and localities within the province have rolled out concerted measures to build an administrative apparatus that better serves the needs of the people and businesses.
The operation of Tan
Lac district’s unit for administrative document reception and results return
meets the demand from organisations and individuals in the area.
According to Ha Minh Phuc, the head of the Tan Lac internal
affairs office, to date, all the 16 local communes and towns have developed
their own one-stop sections.
Similar to Tan Lac, in recent times, administrative reform
activities have been cohesively and practically implemented across various
levels and sectors in other localities. Authorities have met enterprises and
investors and resolved obstacles facing their investment and business
activities this year. Dialogues with local youth in the districts of Yen Thuy
and Kim Boi have been organised, while efforts have been intensified to resolve
issues impeding the province’s key projects and missions.
Hoa Binh is set to continue the operation of the provincial
public administration service centre as well as units for administrative
document reception and results return in 10 districts and city, and 151
communes, wards, and townships. In the first nine months of this year, the
province received 293,161 administrative procedure files. The on-time
resolution rate for administrative procedures by provincial specialised
agencies reached 99.63%. At the district and commune levels, the rate reached
99.84% and 99.9%, respectively.
To further strengthen the local administrative reform, a
series of works have been set out, including the review of related tasks
outlined for the year 2023, the attraction and mobilisation of resources for
technical infrastructure investment, and the implementation of key projects.
Measures will be implemented to improve the local indexes regarding
administrative reform, the satisfaction of people and organisations served, and
the efficiency of the provincial public administration management in 2023. It
is also important to conduct planned and surprise inspections on the
implementation of administrative reform tasks, with violations strictly
handled.
In recent years, Mai Ha commune in Mai Chau district has been making efforts to restructure its crops and livestock to improve production efficiency, enhance the quality of life, and increase income for local residents. Notably, the cultivation of watermelon in line with Vietnamese Goods Agricultural Practices (VietGAP) standards has helped local people escape poverty.
Hoa Binh province scored 43.5493 points in the 2023 Provincial Governance and Public Administration Performance Index (PAPI), ranking 20th out of the 63 provinces and cities nationwide, up 23 places compared to the 2022 list. The results show people's satisfaction with the effectiveness of implementing State policies and laws, local governance, and providing public services by authorities at all levels in the province.
With the motto of "polite, dedicated, professional, and lawful,” over the years, Phu Cuong commune in Tan Lac district has gradually improved the quality of processing administrative procedures, winning high satisfaction from local people and businesses.
Stretching over 300 meters, valued at hundreds of million dong and built to the new-style rural standards, a concrete road in De hamlet, Bac Phong commune, Cao Phong district, was completed by the end of 2023 thanks to the collective contributions of armed forces at provincial and district levels coupled with the active participation of military units stationed throughout the district.
Over the years, the People’s Committee of Lac Thuy district has issued many plans and programmes to speed up the administrative reform, aiming to better serve local people and businesses.
Kim Boi district is drafting 23 planning projects which are expected to help boost the local socio-economic development, attract investors, and mobilise resources for development, said Vice chairman of the district People’s Committee Tran Tuan Son.
They include the one on Bo urban area development until 2045, 20 zoning, and 12 on rural residential areas in communes.
