In recent years, under the direction of the Provincial Party Committee, the Provincial People's Council, the Provincial People's Committee, and the active participation of departments, sectors, localities and investors, the real estate market has had positive developments, contributing to socio-economic growth, attracting many investment capital sources, contributing to urban beautification and gradually improving people's housing needs; encourage organizations and individuals from all economic sectors to participate in social housing investment, ensuring harmony between the interests of the State, businesses and people.

From 2015 to 2023, the Provincial People's Committee issued 44 management documents in the field of real estate, social housing development and directed the Department of Construction to advise and issue more than 1,560 related documents. The documents ensure consistency, timeliness, effectiveness and efficiency when applied in practice. The whole province has been implementing the construction of 212 real estate projects, of which 167 projects are commercial housing with more than 29,000 apartments with a scale of more than 756 hectares.

Mr. Vuong Quoc Tuan speaks at the working session.

Social housing projects have developed but have not kept up with the needs of workers and low-income people; site clearance work for some projects encountered difficulties; the legal framework is unclear and sanctions are inadequate, leading to real estate transactions on the market that are difficult to control or determine actual transaction prices; updating information into the specialized database system on housing and the real estate market is still passive; access to preferential credit policies is still difficult; some people buy or rent social housing incorrectly; regulations on appraisal of selling/rental/lease-purchase prices of social housing are not consistent with the actual situation...

Bac Ninh province recommends that the National Assembly's Supervisory Delegation report to the competent authorities to continue researching, adjusting and supplementing a number of regulations and mechanisms: Issue specific transitional instructions for cases in which investors have been selected through auction but have not yet completed procedures to approve investment policies according to housing law; supplement conditions for subjects to rent social housing; mandatory regulations on the scale and ratio of commercial and service land areas in the process of preparing and adjusting industrial park planning; mechanisms and preferential policies for investors related to management and operation of investment in synchronous social infrastructure construction in large-scale social housing projects...
