Continue to Implement the Project on Continuing to Support Housing Construction for Meritorious People, Phase 2019

In cases eligible for support under the approved Project but changing the form of support from new construction to repair or vice versa without generating additional funds from the Central budget, it is allowed to continue implementation; in other cases, the locality balances the budget from the local annual budget or mobilizes from contributions of other organizations, unions and individuals to implement support.

The project management board presides over and coordinates with the district Finance Department to balance capital sources from the central and provincial budgets and report to the district People's Committee for consideration and decision on the advance funding from the budget to provide to localities to implement phase 2 support. At the same time, the Finance Department advises the district People's Committee to proactively allocate and immediately distribute additional funding to localities to implement support for NCC with the revolution. In addition, businesses, organizations, unions and communities are called upon to actively participate with the State to support NCC with the revolution to improve the quality of newly built or renovated houses in Dong Giang district.

The implementation of housing support policies for NCC with revolution is very important, needs to be done immediately and must be really drastic. The District People's Committee requests localities and related sectors to coordinate closely, urgently review and inspect the reality, ensure that the subjects considered must have real difficulties in housing, create consensus among the people, and ensure fairness for NCC with revolution.

To effectively implement the housing support policy for NCC with the revolution, it requires the entire ruling system to take drastic action, at the same time, it is necessary to promote all internal resources, join hands to take care of families with meritorious services to the revolution. Sectors and levels must implement it in a determined, strict, timely, and targeted manner, so that the state's support policy can truly be effective, contributing to improving the living standards of policy families in the district.

3.1.1. Continue to implement the project on continuing to support housing construction for people with meritorious services, phase 2019 - 2021

In recent years, together with Quang Nam province, Dong Giang district has implemented housing construction for NCC according to Decision No. 22/2013 of the Prime Minister. However, from the end of 2019, this policy will end. Therefore, local authorities at all levels are making efforts to complete the goal, as well as develop a plan to continue implementation when the support source ends.

Decision No. 22/2013 of the Prime Minister on supporting funding for repairing and building new houses for policy beneficiaries has expired. The Department of Construction of Quang Nam province has developed a new plan to propose the People's Council and the Provincial People's Committee to report to the Central Government to continue to have housing support policies for policy beneficiaries. Quang Nam has also estimated the total funding for housing support for policy beneficiaries in the whole province at present to be more than 335 billion VND, of which 85% is from the provincial budget and the rest is from the district budget. This is the responsibility of leaders and authorities at all levels in implementing the morality of "When drinking water, remember its source" and "Repaying gratitude" in the revolutionary land of Quang Nam.

Continue to direct and implement the approved support for housing construction for NCC families with the revolution; widely announce on mass media and to each qualified NCC household that has not yet built or renovated a house to know the time to register for support according to regulations.

Localities continue to review families of revolutionary contributors facing housing difficulties, ensure the right subjects, requirements and arrange priority order of support; develop a specific Project to support families with revolutionary contributions facing housing difficulties, including a plan to mobilize social resources to ensure funding for implementation; effectively integrate housing programs; ensure publicity and transparency when implementing the Project; strengthen inspection, examination and supervision during the support implementation process; promptly resolve reasonable proposals and recommendations of families of revolutionary contributors.

Develop and complete a housing support project for meritorious people in each locality, clearly stating the implementation plan, specifying resources, and plans to mobilize social resources from the people. At the same time, it is necessary to review and harmoniously integrate the housing programs currently being implemented in the area, avoiding dispersion and waste.

Agencies, departments, and localities at all levels must ensure publicity, transparency, and prevent loss in the process of developing housing for people with meritorious services and other social housing programs.

Local authorities at all levels have developed policies and mechanisms to implement the Program to support the construction of houses for meritorious people, poor veterans, and poor households with housing difficulties in Dong Giang province from socialized funds. This is an activity of profound humanitarian significance, demonstrating the practical concern of the Party, government, and the whole society for policy families, poor veterans, and poor households, especially poor households in border communes with housing difficulties in Dong Giang district.

Dong Giang is a district that still faces many difficulties. Hopefully, all levels, sectors, and business communities nationwide will continue to join hands with Dong Giang to support the construction of houses for meritorious people and the poor, creating livelihoods for people to escape poverty sustainably, contributing to the goal of rising out of poverty, developing the economy, and sustainable social security.
