During the conference, Deputy Minister Nguyen Viet Hung stated that the Appraisal Council had assessed the project as generally suitable in terms of legal basis, planning, and urban development programmes. The project was proposed by the Ninh Binh Provincial People's Committee to evaluate the urban classification of the area planned for Hoa Lu City, aiming to meet the criteria for a Type I urban area, and to assess the level of urban infrastructure development in the area earmarked for establishing wards within Hoa Lu City, Ninh Binh Province.
Deputy Minister Nguyen Viet Hung requested that the Ninh Binh Provincial People's Committee ensure full consideration of the comments from the members of the Appraisal Council. The Committee should review the explanations, data, and diagrams in the appendix, and verify the consistency of the report, ensuring the sources of supply are clear. The Committee is also responsible for confirming the authenticity of the information and data provided.
At the same time, the Deputy Minister highlighted several key points:
- Review the compliance with legal regulations and zoning plans for the area where the ward is expected to be established.
- Provide further explanation to clarify certain indicators, update the legal foundations, and elaborate on the urban development programme to ensure that by 2025, any missing or weak standards will be addressed and completed.
The Deputy Minister also emphasized the need to specify and supplement the explanations and reports on the proposed solutions and available resources. He requested the development of a detailed plan to address and overcome the missing or weak standards in order to improve the quality of the urban area. The goal is to ensure that by 2025, the criteria for classifying urban areas based on urban infrastructure are met, in alignment with the spirit of Resolution No. 06 of the Politburo and Resolution No. 26 of the National Assembly Standing Committee. Furthermore, he instructed that the report documents be completed and promptly submitted to the Ministry of Construction.
