They are required to further decentralise procedures within their authority or propose amendments to legal documents to expand delegation, aiming to meet the targets set out in Conclusion No. 18-KL/TW.

The ministries of Finance and Science and Technology were tasked with reviewing administrative procedures and business conditions associated with conditional business lines that have already been reduced, in order to ensure further substantive cuts in line with directives from the Party and Government.

The ministries of Health; Education and Training; Ethnic and Religious Affairs; Foreign Affairs; Agriculture and Environment; Industry and Trade; Culture, Sports and Tourism; and Science and Technology were instructed to urgently issue, or submit for issuance, legal documents needed to implement previously approved plans, including the delegation of 69 administrative procedures, the reduction of 31 procedures, the simplification of 24 procedures, and the removal of 82 business conditions that remain outstanding.

The PM also requested ministries and ministerial-level agencies to announce the administrative procedures that have been reduced or simplified under the 11 resolutions and update them on the National Administrative Procedures Database.

They are required to restructure relevant processes for integration into the centralised administrative procedure settlement information system and the National Public Service Portal.

The deadline is June 5 for the eight resolutions issued on April 29 and related circulars, and June 10 for the remaining three resolutions. Ministries must also configure and provide decentralised and simplified administrative procedures in accordance with the 11 resolutions.

Relevant ministries and agencies are required to report implementation results to the Ministry of Justice by June 12.

Provincial and municipal People's Committees were instructed to report to the Ministry of Justice on resource allocation and organisational arrangements for handling administrative procedures delegated from the central level, as well as any difficulties and recommendations, by the same deadline.
