Hanoi (VNA) – The revenue to the state budget in
the first 9 months of this year amounted to 1,084.7 trillion VND, representing
80.75 percent of the projection and an increase of 10.75 percent over the
figure recorded in the same period last year, according to the Finance
Ministry.
Meanwhile, the expenditure from the state coffer was estimated
at 116.3 trillion VND, with the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic being prioritised.
By the end of September, 29.1 trillion VND from the state budget was spend on
the fight and support to those adversely affected by the pandemic.
Despite the serious impacts of the pandemic, the revenue
still increased year on year thanks to the economic growth momentum in the last
month of last year, the ministry said.
For the rest of the year, the ministry will continue
accelerating administrative procedure reforms on taxation, simplifying business
conditions, and joining other forces in fighting losses of the revenue to the
state budget and creating a healthy business environment, thus encouraging and
attracting investment./.
