General Secretary To Lam

Speaking at the National Assembly's group discussion on Thursday, To said State apparatus rearrangement has been carried out bottom up, from communal to district levels.

Several ministries and central agencies have rearranged some of their departments and units while rearrangement of central and provincial-level apparatuses remains intact.

To called on the Party's commissions, the National Assembly and the Government to set good examples in rearranging and streamlining their apparatuses to save budget for development investment.

He called for raising the proportion of budget expenditures for development investment, national defense and security, poverty elevation, and social welfare to 50 percent from current 30 percent./.
