Of which, concentrated public investment capital disbursed VND 3,160,078 billion, reaching 56.59%.

According to the Director of the Department of Planning and Investment, it is expected that by the end of 2023, the total disbursed public investment capital will reach 95.11% of the plan, of which the concentrated public investment source is estimated to reach 95.42%, including the central budget estimated at 93.66%; the local budget is estimated at 99.69%.

The 2022 capital plan extended to 2023 has disbursed VND 830,555 billion, reaching 52.91%. Of which, the central budget has disbursed VND 777,192 billion, reaching 53.16%; the local budget has disbursed VND 53,363 billion, reaching 49.53%.

For 2 key inter-regional projects: The coastal road project from Nghi Son (Thanh Hoa) to Cua Lo (Nghe An) from Km7 - Km76 has disbursed 680,244 billion VND as of November 20, reaching 81.96%. The Nghe An Oncology Hospital project (phase 2) has disbursed 90,938 billion VND as of November 20, reaching 33.07%.

The Provincial People's Committee assessed that although the disbursement rate of the 2023 capital plan of the whole province is higher than the national average and higher than the same period in 2022, some disbursed capital sources are still low, such as: Capital for the socio-economic recovery and development program, foreign capital, the National Target Program for socio-economic development in ethnic minority and mountainous areas and the National Target Program for sustainable poverty reduction.

Some sectors and districts have low disbursement rates (less than 20% of the capital plan) such as: Department of Health, Vietnam - Germany College, Provincial Employment Service Center, Yen Thanh District General Hospital, Muong Qua High School, and Bac Nghe An Economic - Technical Vocational College.

In addition, site clearance work still has many obstacles, which are major problems affecting the progress of implementation and capital disbursement. The settlement of completed projects is still slow.

From now until the end of 2023, there is more than 1 month left. Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Nguyen Duc Trung requested that sectors, localities, and investors strive to achieve the disbursement target of over 95%, basically disbursing all capital plans for 2022, extending to 2023. For projects that have completed procedures, focus on disbursement, for new projects, it is necessary to pay attention to completing procedures, especially projects included in the 2024 plan.
