Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh on December 12 highlighted the need to counteract group interests and personal gains during the restructuring process of the organisational apparatus, and develop appropriate policies to safeguard officials and public servants’ legitimate rights and interests.
A plan to rearrange and streamline the Government's organisational apparatus was finalised on December 5, with eight ministries and ministerial-level agencies to be maintained (with internal changes only), and 14 others to be restructured, rearranged and merged.
