Clearly stipulate the authority, order, procedures, criteria, and documents to decide on "stopping/terminating project activities"
The Government basically agrees on the necessity of developing a draft Law amending and supplementing a number of articles of the Investment Law (amended) submitted by the Ministry of Finance in Submission No. 596/TTr-BTC dated September 12, 2025. The Ministry of Finance is assigned to preside over and coordinate with relevant ministries and agencies to study and absorb as much as possible the opinions of Government members, the opinions of delegates attending the Meeting and the conclusion of the Prime Minister, and to complete the draft Law to ensure the following requirements: The content of decentralization and delegation of authority to approve project investment policies from the National Assembly to the Prime Minister, from the Prime Minister to the Provincial People's Committees is consistent with the directions of the Party and State leaders. However, it is necessary to study in the direction of having breakthrough solutions, changing the approach to the issue of approving investment policies (not only the content but also the form); it is necessary to simplify the contents in the documents approving/adjusting investment policies; The decision on the project investment policy is only the agreement in principle of the competent authority. The establishment and implementation of the project is the step of concretizing the project content (scale, objectives, investment capital, progress, efficiency, technical technology, environmental impact,...)
For projects of special scale and nature, it is necessary to study and stipulate the feasible and effective operation time and the ability to recover capital (capital recovery time can be more than 70 years), ensuring compliance with the spirit of Resolution No. 68-NQ/TW of the Politburo as well as the direction of the Party and State leaders on attracting and encouraging the private economy to participate in projects, especially large, important and essential infrastructure in specific fields with very large investment and management costs such as railways, airports, seaports, etc. (Deputy Prime Minister Tran Hong Ha has directed the Ministry of Finance to study this content in the process of adjusting the Investment Law in Document No. 8576/VPCP-CN dated September 12, 2025).
Regarding the "Stopping" and "Terminating" of investment project activities (Articles 39 and 40 of the draft Law), currently, there are many investment projects using land that have been abandoned or stopped operating for many years, causing prolonged waste due to problems and difficulties (such as power projects, urban area projects, Thach Khe iron mine project, Thai Nguyen Iron and Steel Plant Phase 2 expansion project, etc.). Therefore, it is necessary to conduct research to clearly stipulate the authority, order, procedures, criteria, and documents to decide to "stop/terminate project activities" to thoroughly handle the above projects, avoiding wasting resources of the state, businesses, and people.
Continue to review and minimize conditional investment and business sectors; strongly shift from pre-inspection to post-inspection.
Review to ensure compliance with Resolution No. 173/2024/QH15 on questioning activities at the 8th Session of the 15th National Assembly, including content on preventing e-cigarettes and heated cigarettes.
The Ministry of Finance shall preside over and coordinate with relevant ministries and agencies to urgently complete the draft Law dossier in accordance with the provisions of the Law on Promulgation of Legal Documents. The Minister of Finance shall be assigned, on behalf of the Prime Minister, to sign the Submission to the National Assembly for consideration and comment on this draft Law at the 10th Session of the 15th National Assembly.
The Government assigned Deputy Prime Minister Ho Duc Phoc to direct the completion of the above three draft laws./.
