Voter Le Duy Thanh, Phung Cong commune, expressed concern that storm Yagi (storm number 3) caused great damage to people and property in northern provinces and cities, including Hung Yen province and some communes of Van Giang district.

Voters hope that the provincial and central authorities, ministries and functional agencies will re-evaluate the entire flood protection area for the production areas of the communes along the Red River, and have a special mechanism to protect production areas with high economic value; request that the authorities build a field pumping station for the two communes of Phung Cong and Xuan Quan, bordering Van Duc commune, Gia Lam district, to promptly pump water when floods occur, ensuring the preservation of people's assets.

The Government needs to have a specific mechanism to support the damage to people and businesses affected by storm No. 3; especially have a policy to support crops not yet included in the provisions of Decree 02/2017/ND-CP on mechanisms and policies to support agricultural production to restore production in areas damaged by natural disasters and epidemics in accordance with the current time.

Voter Nguyen Quang Huy, Van Giang district, said that the current management mechanism, decentralization and state management authority will not ensure the requirements and tasks of state management for localities at the district level but with rapid urban development.

Voters proposed a suitable management mechanism to promote the role and responsibility of the State, investors and people (residents) in urban development management; a suitable mechanism to supplement and consolidate the staff to improve the management capacity of district and commune authorities...

Voter Nguyen Thi Minh Phuong, Long Hung commune, shared that currently, the tasks of office staff at the commune level are numerous, increasingly requiring high qualifications, capacity and sense of responsibility.

However, the current position and allowance levels are not commensurate. Therefore, in order for this team to feel secure in their work and contribute to improving the effectiveness of the leadership activities of local Party Committees and strengthening Party building at the grassroots level, voters propose to consider adding the position of Party Committee Office to commune-level civil servants.

Ms. Dao Thi Bich Ngoc, a voter of the education and training sector of Hung Yen province, said that in the process of implementing the policy of merging primary schools with secondary schools into primary and secondary schools, the education and training sector encountered a number of difficulties and problems.
