Discussing the revised Law on Organization of Local Government, deputies agreed to the organization of administrative units and the model of two-tier local government, aiming to eliminate intermediate levels, streamline the apparatus, better serve the needs of the people, and meet the requirements in the new period.
Deputy To Van Tam of Kon Tum province, said, “This policy will not undermine the role of State management and social governance, but create the basis for streamlining the organization, optimizing resources, eliminating the intermediate tier, building a government close to the people, promptly addressing the legitimate demands of the people. The institutionalization of the Party’s policy in the Constitution has great theoretical and practical significance.”
