the provincial People’s Committee on reforming mechanisms, policies and administrative
procedures to encourage and attract investment, develop business production,
promote economic growth, thus creating more revenue sources for the State
budget.
It will coordinate measures to implement more
effectively policies of the government and provincial People’s Committee on
stabilizing macro economy, increase support for businesses, promptly remove
their difficulties, and facilitate business and production activities.
The department will step up measures to prevent budget
collection loss, contributing to curbing inflation, maintaining macroeconomic
stability and ensuring social welfare. It will also push ahead with the
modernization of tax management alongside with administrative procedure reform.
