Yesterday morning (January 23), the 10th provincial People’s Council for the 2021-2026 tenure held its 20th session to review and decide matters under its jurisdiction. The session was chaired by Nguyen Van Loc, Member of provincial Party Standing Committee and Chairman of provincial People's Council.
7 resolutions approved
During the session, provincial People's Council delegates reviewed and discussed proposals from provincial People's Committee and examination reports presented by the Economic - Budget Committee and the Legal Committee of provincial People's Council. The delegates also voted to approve seven resolutions with high consensus and unanimity. These resolutions aim at promptly implementing solutions to promote the province’s socio-economic development in 2025, in line with the objectives set out by provincial Party Committee and People's Council.
Accordingly, provincial People's Council reviewed and approved adjustments to several public investment contents; issued a list of land plots for bidding to select investors for investment projects utilizing land and approved a task on the General Construction Planning with the 1:5,000 scale for North Tan Uyen 1 Industrial Park. These resolutions aim at providing a legal foundation for provincial People's Committee to accelerate the implementation of key projects as well as carrying out procedures for investment policy approval, investor selection bidding, and planning task approval in compliance with legal regulations. Additionally, provincial People's Council reviewed and approved regulations on the content and funding levels for industrial promotion activities to concretize central regulations as a basis for implementation within the province. The council also considered and abolished support policies for communal civil defense teams to align with the actual local situation.
Particularly, at this session, provincial People's Council reviewed and decided support policies for officials, civil servants, public employees and workers during the process of reorganizing the organizational structure of the political system in the province. This aims at effectively implementing a plan for streamlining the organizational structure in accordance with the Resolution No. 18-NQ/TW, the Government’s Steering Committee's plan on the orientation for organizational restructuring, streamlining and provincial Party Standing Committee's plan for implementing the organizational restructuring of agencies and units within the province's political system. Accordingly, this resolution stipulates policies to support officials, civil servants, public employees and workers during the reorganization of the political system's organizational structure at the 20th session of the 10th provincial People's Council. It passed a resolution on the province's specific support policies for reorganizing the organizational structure.
Notably, alongside the support policies under the Government’s Decree No. 178/2024/NĐ-CP, provincial People's Council approved the local specific support policies for groups affected by the implementation of organizational restructuring. Specifically, the support level is calculated as a percentage (%) of the base amount, using the same calculation method as prescribed in the Chapter II of the Government’s Decree No. 178/2024/NĐ-CP. The percentage of support varies, depending on the position of each group.
For example, those retiring early within 12 months from the issuance date of the restructuring decision by the competent authority, with less than 2 years but up to 10 years remaining until the retirement age stipulated in the Government’s Decree No. 135/2020/NĐ-CP on retirement age, will receive a support rate of 30%-50%. Individuals with less than 2 years remaining until the retirement age under the Decree No. 135/2020/NĐ-CP will receive a support rate of 70%-90%. Those retiring early within 13-60 months from the issuance of the restructuring decision will receive a support rate of 50%.
In addition, for cases of resignation due to organizational restructuring, but not eligible for early retirement; specifically, in case of resignation within 12 months from the date of organizational restructuring by the competent authority, support will be equal to 30% multiplied by the benefit amount; for a period of 13-60 months, the support is equal to 15% multiplied by the benefit amount according to the same policy and regime calculation as prescribed in the Chapter II of Decree No. 178/2024/ND-CP...
