Specifically, Decree 29/2021/ND-CP regulates supervision and assessment of investment projects. However, within the scope of this article, we will focus on regulations on investment monitoring and evaluation reports for investment projects that do not use state capital (investment projects using other capital sources), As follows:
(1) Regarding investment monitoring and evaluation responsibilities
Project investors using other capital sources are responsible for preparing project monitoring and evaluation reports according to regulations.
(2) About the agency receiving the report
Investors in projects using other capital sources prepare and send it to the investment registration agency and the focal agency to carry out investment supervision and evaluation of the locality where the investment project is implemented.
(3) Types of investment monitoring and evaluation reports
