Vantai24h - Recently, VOV has posted information on the Government Inspectorate (TTCP) announced results of inspections of transport projects in the form of build-transfer (BT) contracts, construction contracts joint-transfer (BOT). Vantai24h introduces this article.

Announcement No. 2222 / TB-TTCP, announcing the inspection conclusions on the observance of law provisions in the implementation of a number of investment projects in form of build-transfer (BT) contracts and contracts Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) in the field of transport and environment at the Ministry of Transport. In it, this controversial form of investment is emerging with many holes.

Appraisal of this form of investment, concluded inspection, BT, BOT has contributed to remove difficulties, the pressure on limited state capital investment in infrastructure systems, participants The traffic is also selected for more open traffic conditions.

However, this form also has many shortcomings, violations. TTCP said that the BT and BOT investment forms have not yet implemented regulations on the construction and publication of the list of projects calling for investment in the form of public-private partnerships, the announcement after the approval of the list The project, not the time of January of each year, is a lack of rigor, which negatively affects the selection of investors.

The project of upgrading the Phap Van - Cau Gie road has been identified by the Prime Minister, the mechanism of recovering fees for inadequate projects, high prices, unreasonable adjustment; The project has not been completed, the new investment value is 30%, but the charge is equivalent to the new one

In fact, since the implementation of investment in the form of BT contracts, BOT in the transport sector up to now with more than 70 projects have been implemented without selecting any investor in the form of bidding, 100% is only Bidding on the sole reason of having only one investor, including the selected investor, does not guarantee capacity, leading to the negotiation of contractual content, form of contract, supervision and management. The implementation of contracts, management of investment capital is very complex, many inaccuracies and mistakes, limiting the effectiveness of the implementation of projects as well as the general investment policy.

Secondly, it is unreasonable to invest in a number of projects in the overall balance and planning, approval of some investment contents and total investment in contravention of regulations. . The Ministry of Transport has not conducted a comprehensive assessment of the current state of traffic so as to balance and compare the entire system on the necessity of the investment route in the form of investment including Form of investment under contract BT, BOT.

The PM also concluded that the selection of investors, negotiating, signing and supervising the performance of contracts by competent state agencies was not tight enough; Investors have made and approved many volumes, norms and unit prices in the work cost estimate.

The elaboration and approval of total investment has many contents that are not in accordance with the regime and are not suitable with the actual conditions such as the application of wage unit price, allowance regime, price and distance of transport, grades of rock and soil. whether the equipment norms, reserve expenses ... Or lack of records, based on some approval content on the basis of fact.

Some of the toll stations have unreasonable distance, high charges, rapid increase, causing difficulties for people involved in traffic. Typically, the Hanoi - Thai Binh route is 110km long but there are 5 toll stations.

Conclusion said, through the examination of some contents of the total investment for 6 projects valued misapproval value increased over 451,577 million. These include the Phuoc Tuong Tunnel Project, Phu Gia Tunnel, the upgrading of Phap Van - Cau Gie, Hoa Lac - Hoa Binh, upgrading of National Highway 6, Xuan Mai - Hoa Binh; Thai Nguyen - Cho Moi road project; Project on rehabilitating and improving some sections of National Highway 20.

The Government Inspectorate said that the selection of investors, the negotiation, the signing and supervision of performance of contracts by competent state agencies is not tight; Investors have incorrectly approved many volumes, norms and unit prices in the cost estimate of the project. Some limited capacity investors did not meet the requirements of the project, as three out of four companies in the consortium implementing Phuoc Tuong tunnel project, Phu Gia tunnel did not contribute capital. According to the commitment to withdraw from the partnership and apply for a reduction in the capital contribution, the consortium had to call for replacement investors, leading to slow progress of the project.

Contracts for complex, non-specific, multi-pronged project contracts with multiple contracts signed in temporary form and the assumption that they will continue to be negotiated throughout the process. Project implementation and management time of project exploitation. Meanwhile, investors do not have to bear the risk of turnover and re-determine the rate of profit in the contract. Thus, the project contract is not marketable, there is no equal between the contract parties.

The total investment capital determined for the project contract on the basis of the total investment, however, the results of the total investment test have many deviations, so the investment capital determined for the project contract is also inaccurate.

In addition, the settlement of the determination of the value of the project works is unreasonable, most of the works completed the construction phase has been put into operation, charges are slow and not finalized correctly contract period;

The results of mobilizing capital for implementation of BT and BOT projects have not met the objectives of diversifying sources of capital and economic sectors for investment, identifying inaccurate financial plans, traffic.

The Prime Minister petitioned the Prime Minister to instruct the Ministry of Planning, Investment, Finance, Construction, and Transport to review legal provisions on investment in the form of public-private partnerships. It is not agreed on to supplement, adjust or submit adjustments according to its competence.

It is important to pay attention to the strict regulation on the selection of investors through bidding, the projects with only one registered investor must reconsider the feasibility of the project in deciding the owner. investment.

Specifying the principles and responsibilities in negotiating the signing of project contracts, supervising the performance of contracts, especially the management of the quality of works and the total investment value, the charge rates and the charging time To implement the mechanism of inspection, supervision, payment and settlement such as works using budget capital; To review regulations on the structure of investment capital sources; To review and supplement the national traffic system planning for the toll booths; To overcome the situation too late settlement of works by the specific solutions, which closely associated with the implementation of the right to collect charges ...

For the Ministry of Communications and Transport, on the basis of inspection conclusions, to take initiative in adjusting and remedying all contents already concluded within their responsibilities; Comprehensive review of project dossiers, copper households to supplement correct regulations.

For investors, strict implementation of the regulations on construction investment, the terms contracted projects signed, especially the design, approval of design, cost estimates, quality management in construction ...

The Ministry of Transport is responsible for reviewing, approving and adjusting the first 6 projects of more than 451,577 million dong and adjusting the project contracts on the total investment capital, redefining expenditures Consultancy fee for project formulation and withdrawal of remittance into the budget of the part paid in excess of the total investment value must be adjusted or liquidated 2 consultancy contracts with investors valued at 16,203 million.

Project enterprises handled more than 316,252 million dong to adjust the payment balance according to the real situation,

The Ministry of Communications and Transport (MOT) also weighed the criteria for the project's reimbursement, lack of proper study of the ability of the participants to pay fees, as well as the impact on transportation costs and social costs before deciding on ownership. To invest in projects.

Therefore, the projects have decided to invest in BT, BOT, mostly in important traffic areas, with high density of people, means of transportation, some stations have about Nearly unreasonable, high cost, rapid increase, causing difficulty for people involved in traffic, no other choice. This is typical in the areas of Hanoi, Thai Binh, Nam Dinh, Hung Yen, Hoa Binh ...

As a consequence, the driver of traffic means seeking to avoid going to the toll booth, going into the crossroads, the off-road, damaging the local traffic system, and the danger of unsafety. Some of the projects are inadequately financed under the financial plan. The actual revenue of some projects that are high compared to the financial plan is a burden for the people and businesses involved in the traffic because the time of collection long fee.

The majority of BOT investment projects are to renovate and upgrade old roads, thus increasing the accrual of means of transportation in already crowded areas, not aiming at expanding the network and dividing lanes. Traffic is reasonable. Many projects such as Hoa Lac - Hoa Binh, Thai Nguyen - Cho Moi, upgraded Phap Van - Cau Gie into two phases, but the implementation does not ensure good connectivity, synchronous transport infrastructure. Investment grade is not suitable with approved plan ...
