NA hears 5-year land plan not implemented correctly (19-05-2006) HA NOI  — Many provinces were yet to revise land-use plans according to the 2003 Land Law and several districts and communes have either failed to implement the 2001-05 plan thoroughly or carry out evaluation in a timely manner, said NA Economic and Budgetary Committee at the ongoing session of the National Assembly in Ha Noi. The committee made these observations at the presentation of a government report delivered by Minister of Natural Resources and Environment Mai Ai Truc of the five-year land-use plan for 2006-10 yesterday. The committee’s appraisal report, delivered by Committee Chairman Nguyen Duc Kien, said that these were problems that had adversely impacted the implementation of the 2001-05 plan and the ones that need to be tackled during the new plan period.

VNA/VNS Photo Trọng Đạt Viet Nam News HÀ NỘI – The National Assembly yesterday agreed to remove the master plan on the development of notarisation from a law being drafted to amend planning-related laws. Those at the meeting also agreed to put the Government in charge of developing detailed regulations on the establishment and operation of notary offices, and assured the development of the notary offices complies with the Law on Planning and meets requirements of the State.

The Director of the Planning Management Department under the Ministry of Planning and Investment, Vũ Quang Các, speaks to Tuổi trẻ (Youth) newspaper about the shortcomings of planning activities in Việt Nam What do you think about planning activities in Việt Nam? Unreasonable development plans are seen in sectors including steel, beverage and rice export. The Ministry of Industry and Trade developed planning for rice traders who are eligible to export. In my opinion, I don’t think this needs to be planned as it does not relate to any arrangement of space. Controversial opinions are also raised about planning on rice farming land. It’s reasonable to keep land for farming but it is not necessary to grow only rice in the planned areas. Farmers should be allowed to grow other crops if they are more profitable than rice. I witnessed a situation in which the Ministry of Health and Ministry of Industry and Trade developed two separate plans for the medical materials industry. The two … [Read more...] about New law curbs Gov’t planning
