However, as of the current time, the Ministry of Public Security has completed the construction of 2,820 prefabricated houses for the people, so the actual number of completed houses is higher. The target for 2023 in Nghe An province is to build 5,000 new houses and repair 500 houses for poor and disadvantaged households.

The Provincial Party Secretary agreed with the opinions of the Steering Committee that the remaining support will be allocated from the provincial mobilization fund (in addition to the central fund and corresponding fund from the province as regulated) to ensure that households receiving support to build houses according to the national target programs for sustainable poverty reduction and socio-economic development in ethnic minority and mountainous areas will be supported VND 50 million per new house, similar to the beneficiaries under the province's program. Localities will conduct a review to prioritize the implementation for households benefiting from national target programs.

Mr. Thai Thanh Quy also agreed on the plan to organize a conference to summarize and evaluate the results of the implementation of 2,820 prefabricated houses mobilized and supported by the Ministry of Public Security for 6 border districts in July 2023. He also requested the provincial police department to continue assisting in building all prefabricated houses across the province when households register for support.
