The third group of issues is related to regulations to enhance the efficiency of land use. This includes provisions on multi-purpose land use; limiting and narrowing the cases requiring permission; issues related to the transfer of agricultural land to increase opportunities for large-scale production accumulation; issues related to the transfer of rice-growing land to non-agricultural production.
The fourth group of issues, related to land finance, has separated the issue of land valuation; land support policies and exemptions; some policies to stabilize land rent as an input activity for production and business.
The fifth group of issues, the new regulations aim to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of state land management, in which the notable point is streamlining administrative procedures, creating favorable conditions for the people and businesses, for example, issues related to the transfer of real estate projects, extension of agricultural land.
In addition, Permanent Member of the National Assembly's Economic Committee Phan Duc Hieu also stated that one of the important new points in the amended Land Law is to improve the quality and mechanism of land data information for easier and more complete access by the people, serving their lives and production and business.
