In order to lure more investment in IPs, the board will continue enhancing State management for IPs in the province, said its head Nguyen Anh Quyen.
It will work with relevant agencies to remove difficulties for businesses and improve the verification of investment projects while closely supervising the implementation of projects and strictly punishing enterprises that violate regulations on investment, construction, environment and labour.
In the remaining months of this year, the board will step up administrative reform and provide legal assistance for businesses in the fields of their concern, Quyen said.
Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Van Linh urged the board to raise its sense of responsibility in performing its tasks in the coming time, especially attracting investment and improving the business environment.
The board needs to raise the efficiency of State management and actively coordinate with departments, agencies and localities in addressing issues related to the environment, labour and site clearance, he added.-VNA
