Hanoi (VNA) – The Political Bureau on April 4 proposed the Party Central Committee consider and impose disciplinary actions against former Politburo member, former permanent Deputy Prime Minister Truong Hoa Binh.

After considering a proposal by the Party Central Committee’s Inspection Commission, the Politburo concluded that Binh, during his time as Politburo member, Deputy Secretary of the Government's Party Civil Affairs Committee, and permanent Deputy PM, violated the Party's regulations and the State’s laws in performing his duties, particularly in the prevention and control of corruption and other negative phenomena. He also breached rules on what Party members are prohibited from doing and the responsibility to set an example. His violations caused serious consequences and negative public opinion, hurting the reputation of the Party and State.

The Politburo also decided to impose a disciplinary warning on Nguyen Van Hieu, alternate member of the 13th Party Central Committee and deputy head of the Party Central Committee’s Commission for Information and Education, and Mass Mobilisation. It recommended that the Party Central Committee consider relieving him of his position as an alternate member of the Party Central Committee.

Hieu, during his tenure as Secretary of Can Tho city’s Party Committee, violated the Party's regulations and the State’s laws in the performance of his duties, particularly in the prevention and control of corruption, wastefulness, and other negative phenomena. He also infringed upon rules regarding what Party members are prohibited from doing and the responsibility to set an example. These violations caused serious consequences, created negative public opinion, and damaged the reputation of the local Party organisation and authorities.
