The telegram stated: The Land Law was passed by the National Assembly and took effect from August 1, 2024, initially entering life, contributing to the continued innovation and improvement of institutions and policies, and improving the effectiveness and efficiency of land management and use. The early implementation of the Land Law is an urgent requirement and a pressing task to resolve practical difficulties and problems.

However, through grasping the actual situation and synthesizing reports from agencies, departments, and localities, provinces and cities have not yet fully promulgated the contents assigned in the Law and Decrees. The PM requested the Chairmen of People’s Councils and People’s Committees of provinces and centrally-run cities to strictly implement the PM’s telegrams and instructions. Localities that are slow to promulgate regulatory documents under their authority must assess the causes and impacts affecting the results of implementing socio-economic development, security, and defense tasks in their localities; review and clarify the responsibilities of organizations and individuals for the delay in promulgation, and report to the PM on the handling results before October 15, 2024.

Provinces and cities focus on directing the full promulgation of assigned contents and detailed regulations in the Land Law, which is completed before October 15. They need to report to Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment on synthesizing and announcing to the PM. They are responsible to the Government and the PM if there is a delay in issuing the above documents.

Units need to prepare conditions to effectively implement the Land Law locally, including perfecting the organizational structure of Land fund development organization and Land registration offices; arranging human resources, funding, building databases, issuing economic norms, product unit prices, etc.

Functional agencies continue to promote training, propaganda, and dissemination widely, regularly, and continuously to all levels, sectors, people, and businesses to create consensus and unity in awareness and implementation.

Localities also need to strengthen inspection, examination and handling of violations against state management agencies and land users. In the immediate future, they step up inspection of the implementation of the Land Law in localities.

The PM assigned the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment to regularly monitor and urge localities to organize the implementation of the Land Law and detailed regulations and instructions for the Law’s implementation.
