The decisions were made during the commission’s 33rd session in Hanoi to conclude wrongdoings of the Party Committee of Dak Nong Province’s People’s Committee.

Nguyen Bon, secretary of the Party Civil Affairs Committee and chairman of Dak Nong Province People’s Committee, and Truong Thanh Tung, member of the Party Civil Affairs Committee and vice chairman of the province’s People’s Committee, have been given strong warnings.

The Inspection Commission also asked the Standing Committee of the provincial Party Committee to discipline the province’s Party Civil Affairs Committee for the 2016-21 term according to its authority. 

In its last session, the Inspection Commission concluded the province’s Party Civil Affairs Committee for the term had violated the principle of democratic centralism and working regulations. It had loosened leadership, leading to violations of forest land allocation, protection, management and compensation.

It had caused losses to the State budget, deforestation and forest encroachments, creating disputes and complaints.

Bon took personal responsibility for the above violations. He lacked responsibility in leadership, causing violations in forest management, protection and development. He directly signed decisions on land leasing, forest allocation and compensation which failed to obey the law.

Tung also directly signed a number of decisions not in accordance with the law.
