According to the report of the Ministry of Finance, by the end of February 2025, the total state budget investment plan for 2025 assigned by the Prime Minister to ministries, central agencies and 9 localities under Working Group No. 1 was more than VND 85,800 billion, accounting for about 10.4% of the total capital of the country. However, the average disbursement rate only reached 6.5% of the assigned plan. Of these, 4 ministries and central agencies have not yet disbursed public investment capital, notably the National Assembly Office, the Government Office, the Ministry of Home Affairs, and the Government Inspectorate. Some localities have low disbursement rates such as Quang Nam (5.99%), Quang Ngai (2.34%), Khanh Hoa (3.55%), and Da Nang City (4.19%).

The Ministry of Finance stated that the low disbursement rate was mainly due to projects that had not completed investment procedures, were waiting for adjustments to their medium-term investment plans, or were affected by the restructuring of the administrative apparatus. The Ministry of Finance recommended that ministries, branches, and localities urgently review each specific project, assign leaders responsible for disbursement, and focus on handling specific problems such as site clearance, bidding, and settlement, while promoting land auctions and increasing budget revenue to supplement development investment capital.
