performances in the taxation sector.
In 2021, given COVID-19-induced difficulties,
the provincial department decided to focus on tackling obstacles facing tax
payers. As a result, the local total state budget revenue reached 5.168
trillion VND (227.5 million USD), 24.3 percent higher than Government estimate
and up 35.4 percent annually.
Implementing the Government’s tax support
policies for people and businesses affected by COVID-19 last year, the
department extended the deadline for the payment of tax and land rent worth
about 179 billion VND, while reporting 45 billion VND worth of tax exemption
and reduction.
In 2022, the province is assigned to collect a
budget revenue of 3.582 trillion VND by the Government and the Ministry of
Finance; and of 6.095 trillion VND by the provincial Party Committee, People's
Council, and People's Committee. The tax department has set out four key task
and four groups of solutions to reach the goals.
Addressing the function, Minh and Liem requested
the entire sector to closely follow directions of the General Department of
Taxation and local authorities as well as the local socio-economic development
in fulfilling their assigned tasks.
Liem noted that it is necessary to capitalise on
the province’s potentials for boosting investment attraction and creating
sustainable incomes.
Increasing inspection and examination works is
also needed to prevent revenue loss, reduce tax-related debts, and meet the
targets, he added./.
In the first quarter of 2024, the credit institutions in the province have actively deployed the legal documents of the State and the State Bank relating to currency, credit and interest rates. At the same time, they have promoted the capital mobilization, focusing on the solutions to expand the credit investment along with strengthening the credit quality management, lending to priority programs to promptly meet the capital needs for export - business and consumer demand during Tet in 2024.
Outside the key economic region of Hoa Binh, yet Lac Son district has utilised its potential and strengths regarding labour, land, and transportation connectivity to attract investment to the locality, contributing to promoting socio-economic development.
