HEREBY MAKE DECISIONS ON

I. Assessment of implementation of economic restructuring in the period 2011 - 2015

The National Assembly generally agrees with assessment of economic restructuring in the period of 2011-2015 as specified in the Government’s Statement; besides the achievements; however, limitations still exist and 03 key targets have not yet to be achieved. The investment structure still remains rigid and ineffective. The progress of restructuring of State-owned enterprises is still slow and the capacity for administration is limited. The business efficiency of State-owned enterprises is low and some economic sectors remain dependent on FDI enterprises. SMEs are not awarded incentives for development; the downside of collective economy still exists. The restructuring of commercial banks are ineffective, there are a lot of difficulties in settling bad debts. The restructuring of economic sectors fails to meet requirements for international integration and climate change response. The restructuring of economic regions is not concentrated, the development of economic regions is still divided according to the localities; regulations on cooperation between localities in economic regions and between economic regions. The development of human resources, in respect of quantity and qualifications, is not in line with the economic restructuring.

These above-mentioned limitations are mainly caused by subjective factors. Specifically, the implementation of economic restructuring policies is infectively, slowly and passively carried out and local and personal interests are more concerned; it lacks the cooperation between local authorities. There is no breakthrough in market regulations, especially production market; market regulation reforms are not synchronously conducted; several local authorities are not make their best effort to implement to restructure the economy; regulatory authorities and citizens do not uphold their role in supervising the economic restructuring.
