Prime Minister Le Minh Hung has directed ministries and agencies to significantly streamline administrative procedures in key sectors, including fire prevention and fighting, construction, environmental management, and industrial parks and clusters, with implementation targeted for May and June 2026.

The move aims to reduce bureaucratic burdens on citizens and businesses, contributing to Vietnam’s goal of achieving double-digit economic growth.

Under the directive, the ministries of Public Security, Industry and Trade, Agriculture and Environment, Finance, and Construction are required to review and incorporate relevant recommendations from the Ministry of Justice to simplify administrative procedures within their authority by the end of May 2026. Matters beyond their jurisdiction must be submitted to higher authorities for consideration and implemented by June.

The Prime Minister also called for the urgent completion of proposed reforms on decentralization, administrative simplification, and business conditions for inclusion in a draft government resolution.

In the industrial cluster sector, the Ministry of Industry and Trade has been tasked with simplifying procedures for establishing and expanding industrial clusters through greater integration and simultaneous processing of administrative steps.

Meanwhile, the Ministry of Construction is expected to finalize amendments to regulations guiding the Construction Law, while the Ministry of Finance will coordinate efforts to establish a unified management body overseeing industrial parks and clusters.
