Under regulations, communes and wards must complete fund rollover procedures and finalise their 2025 budget accounts by March 31, 2026.

At the meeting, participants focused on clarifying difficulties and bottlenecks in data reconciliation and finalisation, the compilation of proposals for adjusting and allocating funds, as well as fund rollover and the handling of unused capital. They also discussed plans for rolling over, allocating and utilising funds in the coming period.


Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Dang Ngoc Hau speaks at the meeting.

At the meeting, Hau urged departments, agencies and localities to swiftly reconcile and finalise data to ensure accuracy and consistency, and then develop plans to effectively utilise rollover funds.

He also called for the prompt adjustment and allocation of budget estimates to enable units to continue implementing tasks, with completion targeted before March 25, 2026.

At the same time, he requested plans for the use of unallocated funds, and, based on government regulations, to clearly identify funds to be rolled into the next phase while proposing improvements to implementation criteria and mechanisms.
