Within the framework of the Conference on the implementation of certain provisions of the Law on Management and Use of Public Assets (amended and supplemented) organized by the Ministry of Finance on the afternoon of January 14, 2025, the leadership of the Public Asset Management Department (Ministry of Finance) provided information on the key contents of Decree No. 03/2025/ND-CP on the rearrangement and disposal of public-owned houses and land.
According to Mr. Nguyen Tan Thinh, Director of the Public Asset Management Department (Ministry of Finance), the rearrangement and disposal of houses and land aims at important objectives.
Accordingly, the Decree aims to rectify and maintain the management and use of houses and land to ensure compliance with regulations; to thoroughly eliminate the situation of wasteful land use leading to the loss of public assets.
At the same time, it aims to exploit financial resources from land and houses to serve socio-economic development and contribute to promoting urban development in a civilized, modern, and sustainable manner.
With strict regulations, Decree No. 03 is expected to help realize these goals as soon as possible.
According to Mr. Nguyen Tan Thinh, based on the Law on Management and Use of Public Assets (amended and supplemented) recently passed by the National Assembly under Law No. 56, based on the nature, characteristics of land management, and the actual implementation in the past, the Government's Decree No. 03 has prescribed 5 forms of rearrangement and disposal of houses and land of agencies, organizations, and units.
