In addition, the Department of Finance has been assigned to advise competent authorities on the establishment of an appraisal council, if necessary, based on the project’s scale, nature, and level of complexity, in order to carry out appraisal procedures in accordance with regulations.

For other major projects, including the Bien Hoa–Vung Tau Expressway and Ring Road 3, the Dong Nai provincial People’s Committee has directed the Director of the Department of Construction to continue inspections of construction activities, with particular attention to contract packages that are behind schedule.
