Hai Phong City People's Committee said that as of June 30, the City had only disbursed VND5,509.4 billion, equal to 32.37% of the plan assigned by the Prime Minister and 27.58% of the plan assigned by the City. The reason for the low disbursement rate was due to the preparation for bidding and difficulties in site clearance.

In 2024, with a total of more than 19,972 billion VND of public investment capital allocation plan, Hai Phong will allocate it to 3 regions. Of which, more than 9,622 billion VND will be allocated to projects directly assigned by the City People's Committee, more than 4,306 billion VND will be allocated to projects that Hai Phong decentralizes investment decisions to districts and towns, and more than 3,350 billion VND of public investment capital is an additional source of capital for the program of building model new rural communes decided for investment by the People's Committees of districts.

With a capital of more than VND 9,622 billion allocated by Hai Phong to 22 projects, new investors have disbursed over VND 2,932 billion, reaching 30.48% of the plan. Of the 22 investors assigned public investment capital in 2024, only 3 units have disbursed more than 50% of the assigned capital plan, 5 units have disbursed at a level above the average of the whole city (30.48%). Notably, among these investors, 6 units have not disbursed the assigned capital plan.

According to the assessment of the Hai Phong City People's Committee, site clearance and construction activities at some projects have not met the set progress, causing the disbursement of public investment capital in Hai Phong to be lower than the same period last year. In the coming time, the working groups urging the disbursement of public investment capital of the City need to strictly implement the instructions, ensuring the completion of the public investment disbursement plan.

For Quang Ninh province, according to the report of the Provincial People's Committee, the total public investment capital plan for 2024 of the locality is 15,130 billion VND. As of June 14, 2024, Quang Ninh has disbursed 2,351 billion VND, equivalent to 15.5% of the capital plan, and is expected to disburse 30.8% by the end of the first 6 months of the year.

The reasons for the slow disbursement rate of public investment capital have been pointed out by all levels and sectors, such as problems with the source of materials for leveling, reinforcing foundations, and site clearance.

Quang Ninh is striving to achieve a minimum disbursement rate of public investment capital of 80% by September 30, 2024 and 100% of the investment capital plan assigned at the beginning of the year by December 31, 2024.
