The meeting, held in-person in Hanoi and connected to the 63 provinces and centrally-run cities, aims to assess the implementation of administrative procedure reform associated with digital transformation, serving people and businesses, and to announce the 2022 Satisfaction Index of Public Administration Services (SIPAS) and the 2022 Public Administration Reform (PAR) Index.

In his opening remarks, Prime Minister Chinh, who is Head of the Committee, stressed that administrative reform is one of the three strategic breakthrough tasks, which have received great attention from the Party and State.

Over the past time, with joint efforts of ministries, sectors, localities, and the steering committee, administrative reform has been implemented drastically and concertedly in the fields of law-making, administrative procedures, organisation of the state apparatus, civil service, public finance, and digital transformation and e-Government and digital Government building.

The work has gained important achievements, contributing to national development and increasing the validity and effectiveness of all-level authorities’ direction and administration.

However, there remain a lot of obstacles and bottlenecks hampering investment in production and business development, and affecting the mobilisation of resources for development.

The Government leader requested the steering committee, ministries, sectors, and localities to focus on assessing and clarifying the results, shortcomings and weaknesses to have appropriate response measures.

He asked committee members to clearly define their roles and responsibilities for the administrative reform of the country, their ministries and sectors.
