Under the petition, HoREA requests the Government to propose to the National Assembly (NA) an extension of Resolution No. 42/2017/NQ-QH14, which piloted a programme that handled bad debt of credit institutions, until December 31, 2024 to create conditions for credit institutions to effectively manage bad debts, including the collateral assets of real estate projects.
According to HoREA, the pilot resolution has created conditions for credit institutions to effectively manage bad debts since 2017, especially collateral assets of real estate projects, but it expired on December 31, 2023.
HoREA also said the amended Law on Real Estate Business will take effect from January 1, 2025, so a legal gap will arise in 2024 when the new law has not been applied while Resolution No. 42/2017/NQ-QH14 has expired.
"Therefore, HoREA requests that the Government coordinate with the NA’s Standing Committee to propose the NA consider an extension of Resolution No. 42/2017/NQ-QH14 for another 12 months until December 31, 2024 to create conditions for credit institutions to effectively manage bad debts, including collateral assets of real estate projects," HoREA said in the petition.
