On August 13, Nam Dinh City People's Committee held a conference to announce Resolution No. 1104/NQ-UBTVQH15 dated July 23 of the National Assembly Standing Committee on the arrangement of district and commune-level administrative units in the 2023-2025 period of Nam Dinh province.

Accordingly, the entire natural area of ​​more than 74 square kilometers and population of more than 84,000 people of My Loc district will be merged into Nam Dinh city; at the same time, a number of wards and communes will be arranged.

After the merger, Nam Dinh City has a natural area of ​​nearly 121km2 and a population of nearly 364,200 people; adjacent to Nam Truc and Vu Ban districts; Ha Nam province and Thai Binh province.

After the arrangement, Nam Dinh city has 21 commune-level administrative units, including 14 wards: Cua Bac, Cua Nam, Hung Loc, Loc Ha, Loc Hoa, Loc Vuong, Nam Phong, Nam Van, Nang Tinh, My Xa, Quang Trung, Tran Hung Dao, Truong Thi, Vi Xuyen and 7 communes: My Ha, My Loc, My Phuc, My Tan, My Thang, My Thuan, My Trung.

Dissolve the People's Court of My Loc district to merge into the People's Court of Nam Dinh city; dissolve the People's Procuracy of My Loc district to merge into the People's Procuracy of Nam Dinh city. The People's Court and People's Procuracy of Nam Dinh city are responsible for inheriting the duties and powers of the People's Court and People's Procuracy of My Loc district according to the provisions of law. The Resolution takes effect from September 1.

Speaking at the conference, Mr. Pham Dinh Nghi, Chairman of Nam Dinh Provincial People's Committee, emphasized that after the merger, Nam Dinh City will downgrade its urban status from type I to type II, so Party committees, authorities, departments, branches, organizations, and localities must propagate and explain so that cadres, party members, and people clearly understand this content.

From now until September 1, there is very little time left, so the Standing Committee of Nam Dinh City Party Committee and the Standing Committee of My Loc District Party Committee need to continue to do a good job of organization and personnel work in the direction that the Standing Committee at that level will arrange the cadres in which area.

From September 1, the Party and government apparatus of Nam Dinh City after the merger must come into operation to carry out political tasks and meet the needs of the people.
