Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh has signed Decision No. 138/QD-TTg regarding the consolidation of the Steering Committee for implementing National Assembly resolutions on pilot special mechanisms and policies for the development of Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC).
According to the decision, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh serves as the Head of the Steering Committee, while Secretary of the HCMC Party Committee Tran Luu Quang, and Minister of Finance Nguyen Van Thang act as its Standing Vice Chairman and Vice Chairman, respectively.
The Steering Committee is defined as an inter-disciplinary coordination body. Its primary role is to assist the Prime Minister in researching, directing, and coordinating the resolution of significant, cross-sectoral issues during the implementation of National Assembly Resolution No. 98/2023/QH15 and Resolution No. 260/2025/QH15 (which amends and supplements Resolution No. 98) regarding pilot special mechanisms for HCMC's development.
The Committee is tasked with directing ministries, sectors, and relevant agencies to execute the provisions of Resolutions 98 and 260. It will also research and propose strategic directions and solutions to the Prime Minister to address major inter-disciplinary challenges arising during the rollout of these resolutions.
Furthermore, the Steering Committee is responsible for directing and coordinating between ministries and organizations to handle vital cross-sectoral matters. It aims to ensure close and effective cooperation in advising and proposing implementation solutions.
The Committee must provide timely reports on difficulties or obstacles that exceed its authority and suggest solutions to competent levels to address any practical inconsistencies that may arise.
