Deputy Minister of Construction inspects social housing projects in Ninh Binh
At the working session, a representative of the provincial Department of Construction reported on the progress of social housing projects in the province.
Implementing the project on “Building at least one million social house units for low-income earners and workers in industrial zones in the 2021-2030 period approved by the Prime Minister, Ninh Binh has built and adjusted a programme on developing social housing in the 2021-2030 period in accordance with local reality.
Ninh Binh built 964 social housing units in the 2021-2024 period, and 4,461 other units in 2025, successfully completing the set target.
In accordance with the Government’s Resolution No. 07/NQ-CP dated January 12, 2026, on assigning targets for social housing development to localities for the 2026-2030 period, Ninh Binh province has been assigned a target of completing 24,336 units during the 2025-2030 period.
In 2026, Ninh Binh province aims to complete approximately 6,053 social housing units. Currently, the province has eight projects under construction and eight projects expected to start construction and have products in 2026. With these results, Ninh Binh basically meets the requirements and is capable of completing the social housing development target assigned by the Prime Minister, making an important contribution to ensuring social security and meeting the housing needs of policy beneficiaries, low-income earners, and workers in the province.
At the conference, delegates discussed and clarified the difficulties and advantages in implementing the social housing development programme.
Deputy Minister of Construction Nguyen Van Sinh stated that practical inspections showed that the province had only started construction on over 4,400 units. Some projects had started but still lacked the number of apartments compared to the province's registered targets, and some projects had not yet started construction (the investment project to build a service area and worker housing in Dong Van IV Industrial Park). This requires the province to closely adhere to the assigned targets, have specific plans for each project, and direct investors to immediately implement them to ensure the completion of the social housing development target for 2026.
He emphasized that as a province with developed industry and urban areas, the demand for social housing will certainly be very high in the coming years. Therefore, Ninh Binh needs to focus on resolving difficulties, accelerating the construction progress of projects, and planning the commencement of new projects to complete the assigned targets for the 2026-2030 period early, meeting the needs of workers, especially those with low incomes.
On behalf of the Provincial People's Committee, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Tran Anh Dung stated that the province will continue to focus on directing efforts to successfully complete the social housing development targets assigned for 2026 and for the entire 2026-2030 period.
He assigned the Department of Construction and other departments and agencies to advise the province on selecting favourable locations for planning and constructing social housing, while also strengthening inspection and supervision of ongoing projects to ensure completion on schedule.
The Vice Chairman requested investors to concentrate their human and material resources to accelerate the construction progress of projects as committed to the provincial authorities.
Earlier, the delegation conducted on-site inspections at projects in Kim Thanh ward, Le Ho ward, Ha Nam ward, Thanh Liem commune, Thanh Nam ward, and Hoa Lu ward.
