PREAMBLE

1 Reasons for choosing topics

Theoretically, the uniqueness of the state organization and the democratic

centralization principle in the organization and operation of the Vietnamese state apparatus put the city government under the central authority in a dual relationship : dependent and autonomous Meanwhile, many theoretical issues dealing with the relationship between the central government and local governments in general and centrally-run cities in particular have not been clarified, making it difficult to decentralize state management between with central government with municipal government

In terms of institutions and policies, although the Party's policy and the State's

policy is to increase the decentralization of state management to the municipal government, but The legal regulations on this issue are lacking and weak, not synchronous, unified, not meet the requirements of practice; it has not become a strong enough legal and policy system to regulate the decentralized contents of state management between the central government and the municipal government From the shortages and shortcomings of the policy system, the law requires completing and enhancing the legal status of decentralization between the central government and the municipal government

In practical terms, centrally-run cities are major political, cultural, economic

and commercial centers of the region and the country; is an important driving force for economic growth of the region and the country Meanwhile, the decentralization

of central state management to the city government under the central government is still spreading, not reaching a suitable authority for the centrally-run city with good urban management with specific characteristics In particular, three areas need to be decentralized in focus and comprehensive, but have not been given adequate attention such as:

i) Decentralization of state management on socio-economic development planning and plans: Planning and planning work (including formulation, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of plannings and plans), as an important state management tool, there are still many shortcomings before the demands of reality in centrally-run cities Therefore, the determination of the authority and responsibility of the central and municipal governments directly under the central government; at the same time, to strengthen decentralization of central state management over municipal administrations under the central government in formulating socio-economic development plannings and plans of urgent socio-economic significance

ii) Decentralization of state management on the state budget: The authority to decide on the state budget of the local government, especially that of the municipal government, is limited, passive, overlapping in many legal provisions The current state of state budget management decentralization poses an urgent and important requirement to continue to strengthen the decentralization of state budget management for centrally-run cities

iii) State management decentralization on organizational apparatus and civil servants: Over 10 years of implementing the Government's Resolution on

decentralization between the Government and provinces and centrally run cities, organizational apparatus management and civil servants have achieved important results, contributing to streamlining the organizational structure, improving the effectiveness and efficiency of state management; to build a contingent of qualified and capable cadres and civil servants to ensure the performance of public duties However, besides the achieved results, there are still many difficulties and problems

Stemming from the need to perfect theory, institutions, policies and meet the

requirements of practice, the author chooses the content: "Decentralization of state

management between the central government and the municipal government" as a

research topic of the thesis

2 Purpose and mission of the study

2.1 The purpose of the thesis topic

The purpose of the thesis is to study the theoretical and practical basis in order

to propose directions and solutions to enhance the decentralization of central state management to the municipal government

2.2 The mission of the thesis topic

To accomplish the above purpose, the topic performs the following tasks:
