Draft project on urban authority model of Danang
(VOV) - Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc on February 21 chaired a meeting with leaders from central ministries and sectors to discuss the draft of a new urban authority model for the central city of Danang.
The new model aims to more comprehensively deal with major issues related to urban development and more effectively bring the role and status of the city and the nation as a whole into full play.
It will also have more flexibility and better allow for management to make adjustments to adapt to the specific needs of each specific residential community and territorial administrative unit.
The revised 2013 Constitution acknowledged urban and rural administration models in Vietnam.
There was general high consensus by participants at the meeting that implementing the new urban authority model is a step in the right direction and consistent with the needs of the city for urbanization.
The Politburo has previously adopted the new urban authority model and the new regime has been given effect at district and ward level people’s councils for the last two years, Phuc noted.
