The Government has issued Resolution No. 66.8/2025/NQ-CP, which separates the compensation, support, and resettlement components of the Ninh Thuan nuclear power project into an independent project.
The Resolution dated November 26 is effective from the date of signing until February 28, 2027, and applies to localities with nuclear power plants approved by the National Assembly, specifically in Khanh Hoa province, as well as to investors, project preparation units, and other related organizations and individuals involved in the Ninh Thuan nuclear power project.
Accordingly, the compensation, support, and resettlement components of the project are to be treated as an independent project. The Government has assigned the People's Committee of Khanh Hoa province as the managing authority for this project. The Chairman of the People's Committee of Khanh Hoa province is authorized to make investment decisions for the project when the competent authority has not yet decided to adjust the investment policy and approve the adjustments to the Ninh Thuan nuclear power project as per legal regulations.
While awaiting resettlement arrangements, the Provincial People's Committee is permitted to provide temporary housing or financial support for housing rental to those whose land is acquired for the project. The specific duration and level of support will be determined by the People's Committee, ensuring transparency and alignment with local conditions.
The Government has tasked the investors of Ninh Thuan 1 and Ninh Thuan 2 nuclear power plants with updating this independent project's content into their respective pre-feasibility study reports to ensure consistency. To expedite progress, the Resolution allows for the application of a streamlined bidding process for consulting and non-consulting packages related to the project.
A notable aspect of the Resolution is the flexible land acquisition process to serve the project.
