Many localities are determined to disburse over 90% of the plan


With the determination to bring the country's disbursement rate to at least 95% of the public investment capital plan, in addition to efforts to implement common solutions, depending on reality, each locality has additional private solutions.


Reality has proven that many localities have risen to the top of the country in terms of high disbursement rates. According to a report from the Ministry of Finance, with disbursement reaching 92% of the capital plan assigned by the Prime Minister by the end of October, Thua Thien-Hue province is currently leading the country. Next are Dong Thap, Tien Giang, and Vinh Phuc provinces, all of which have disbursement rates of over 80%.


There is just over 1 month left until the end of the year and more than 2 more months to disburse the 2023 capital plan (payment is allowed until January 31 of next year). Therefore, localities with high disbursement rates are trying to complete all assigned capital plans. Localities with disbursement rates lower than or equal to the national average are trying twice as hard to disburse as high as possible.


Ha Giang is a mountainous province with many difficulties, so promoting the disbursement of government capital will help the local economy develop. However, the province's disbursement progress is still slow. According to this province's report, as of mid-November, over VND 3,560 billion had been disbursed, reaching over 59% of the capital plan. Among the investors (investors) assigned large capital resources, there are 22 investors disbursing above the provincial average; 12 investors disbursed below average.

Investors with large amounts of allocated capital and assigned to manage key projects are determined to speed up construction progress and strive to "win the sun and beat the rain" to disburse all committed capital sources.


As a district with a new disbursement rate of about 55%, below the average of Ha Giang province, Vi Xuyen district also sets its determination and commitment to disbursement at the highest level. Accordingly, this district is focusing on resolving difficulties in materials, completing payment procedures, finalizing completed projects, and handing them over for use.


Bac Giang is currently the only City. Bac Giang and Tien Yen district disbursement reached more than 70%. The project management boards of the province and the remaining districts have slow disbursement progress. The reason for the slow disbursement in Bac Giang lies in not having enough capital. According to the province's general reflection, the Government's capital is deducted 60% from land use revenue, meanwhile, the province's results of collecting this money this year are low, so capital has not been allocated as planned to disburse for the province. works.


To speed up disbursement progress, many units and projects in Bac Giang province have cut and transferred capital. For example, Lang Giang district has cut down the categories of some projects, with a total budget of about 100 billion VND to allocate capital for a number of other projects under construction with rapid progress...

It can be seen that the high determination of localities in disbursing investment capital will create strong progress for this work at the end of the year. The national disbursement target of 95% may not be feasible as many recent comments have suggested, but with what localities have been doing, we still expect a positive result for each dollar of capital to be developed. exert strong effectiveness in society.
