HÀ NỘI – Việt Nam Road Administration has asked the Ministry of Transport to allow more related agencies to take part in inspection and supervision of Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) toll stations.

The proposal is to ensure transparency and prevention of negative, anti-tax losses and to avoid fraud charges in the operation.

The agencies that are expected to join in include Economic Security Department under the Public Security Ministry, General Department of Taxation of the Finance Ministry and taxation departments in localities.

Earlier, the Ministry of Transport requested Việt Nam Road Administration to inspect and monitor the toll system of all BOT projects nationwide.

The BOT stations were required to ensure a one-stop toll system, gradually moving to an automatic system.

Investors in BOT projects were also asked to enhance recording all data related to vehicles traveling on the roads and to ensure data and videos were kept for at least one year. – VNS
