The Government Inspectorate has officially initiated a series of thematic inspections covering operational and managerial aspects in the petroleum business sector. This strategic move is led directly by Senior Inspector Nguyen Manh Cuong from Department XI, which oversees inspections, complaints, and dispute resolutions.
The audit process is scheduled to last for 30 working days, with the primary review period spanning from January 1, 2024, to June 30, 2026. However, the inspection team holds the authority to extend the scope of examination to periods prior to or following this timeframe to ensure data integrity and comprehensive findings.
The main focus of this inspection is to evaluate the effectiveness of state management in the petroleum industry, which is vital for economic stability. The team will examine the implementation of existing laws and regulations, identify potential weaknesses in control mechanisms, and uncover possible operational violations on the ground.
The results of this audit will not only serve as a basis for legal enforcement but also provide recommendations for improving national policy. The government aims to refine regulations deemed inadequate to foster a more transparent and efficient oil business ecosystem.
In response to the commencement of this process, the Ministry of Industry and Trade expressed full commitment to providing the necessary data and information access required by the inspection team. Synergistic coordination among relevant agencies is expected to ensure the smooth execution of oversight procedures in accordance with the established mandate.
