Accordingly, a total of 26.9 trillion VND from the increased central budget revenue in 2023 is expected to be allocated to 20 projects across four sectors: defence (2 trillion VND), security (4 trillion VND), transportation (19.380 trillion VND), and judicial reform (1.520 trillion VND).
Of these allocated funds, 8.680 trillion VND falls under the decision-making authority of the National Assembly Standing Committee (NASC) and is expected to be allocated to 6 projects of the Ministry of Transport, which have been assigned under the medium-term public investment plan for the 2021-2025 period, ensuring all investment procedures are complete.
The remaining 18.220 trillion VND falls under the decision-making authority of the NA and is expected to be allocated to 14 projects. The Tuyen Quang-Ha Giang Expressway Project’s Phase 1 is expected to receive an additional 3.5 trillion VND, including 1.5 trillion VND for the section in Ha Giang Province and 2 trillion VND for the section in Tuyen Quang Province. The investment policy for the project needs to be adjusted to expand its scale from 2 lanes to four complete 4 lanes.
