Officials at the meeting concludedthat the Standing Board of the Phu Yen provincial Party Committee in the 2015 -2020 tenure had violated the democratic centralism principle and workingregulations and lacked a sense of responsibility,leadership and direction.

This had enabled the Party Delegation of theprovincial People’s Council, the Party Civil Affairs Board of the provincialPeople’s Committee, and many organisations and individuals to infringe theParty’s rules and the State’s laws on the management and use of state-ownedland and assets; the management and protection of forest, natural resources andminerals; investment; construction; civil servant recruitment; along with thebidding and procurement of medical supplies. It had also created conditions forsome criminal cases involving some officials and Party members, including key officialsof the provincial People’s Committee.

The Party Delegation of the provincial People’sCouncil in the 2016 - 2021 tenure had violated the Party’s rules and workingregulations while lacking leadership and direction, thus enabling the StandingBoard of the People’s Council to break the Law on Organisation of LocalAdministration, and enabling the council’s Standing Board, the council’schairperson and the People’s Committee of Phu Yen to commit wrongdoings in the landmanagement and use as well as the procurement of medical supplies for theCOVID-19 combat.

The Politburo and the Party Central Committee’s Secretariat said thewrongdoings and shortcomings committed by the Standing Board of the Phu YenParty Committee in the 2015 - 2020 tenure, the Party Delegation of the People’sCouncil in the 2016 - 2021 tenure, the Party Civil Affairs Board of the People’sCommittee in the 2016 - 2021 and 2021 - 2026 tenures, and Huynh Tan Viet caused“serious” consequences.
