Unleashing land resources for socio-economic development

On June 26, Deputy Prime Minister Tran Hong Ha chaired an online conference to review the implementation of Resolution 18-NQ/TW dated June 16, 2022 of the 13th Party Central Committee on continuing to innovate and perfect institutions and policies, improve the effectiveness and efficiency of land management and use, creating momentum to turn our country into a high-income developed country (Resolution 18-NQ/TW); evaluate 1 year of implementing the 2024 Land Law and amend and supplement the 2024 Land Law.

The conference was connected online from the Government Headquarters to the People's Committees of provinces and centrally-run cities. Attending the conference at the Thai Nguyen province bridge were Ms. Nguyen Thi Loan, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee; leaders of departments, branches and sectors of the province.

After 3 years of implementing Resolution 18-NQ/TW, all levels and sectors have issued specific plans, institutionalizing the Party's major viewpoints through the 2024 Land Law and a system of documents guiding its implementation. The Law has contributed to removing obstacles in land management, reducing overlaps and creating a clear legal foundation.

However, implementation remains difficult due to the lack of uniformity in relevant laws, especially during the transition period at the local level. After one year of implementation, the 2024 Land Law has initially shown its effectiveness. The Government and ministries and branches have issued 9 decrees, 1 decision and 6 circulars guiding its implementation. Propaganda work has been stepped up, with more than 800,000 people participating in the online contest to learn about the Law and many popular conferences organized from the central to the commune level.

The Land Law 2024 not only creates a foundation for the accumulation and concentration of agricultural land, but also expands opportunities for multi-purpose land use, maximizing land resources to serve socio-economic development in the new period.

The propaganda and dissemination of the Law has also been widely organized in diverse forms. Up to now, the province has appraised and approved the 2025 land use plan for all 9/9 districts and cities. At the same time, land has been recovered, compensated, supported, resettled, and allocated and leased for 1,938 works and projects.

In his concluding remarks, Deputy Prime Minister Tran Hong Ha affirmed: Land is a special resource that needs to be managed with innovative thinking and an approach based on a socialist-oriented market mechanism. He requested the drafting agency to fully absorb opinions, clarify land use rights, protect rice-growing land, ensure food security; encourage land accumulation; and remove overlaps between planning schemes. At the same time, it is necessary to review regulations on inspection and dispute resolution in accordance with the two-level government model, and study flexible exemption and reduction of land use fees for each locality, creating a driving force to attract investment and develop the economy. This will create important resources to promote national development in the new period.
