Ms. Ngoc Anh's unit has adjusted the investment approach and approved the adjusted investment approach. Ms. Anh asked, does her unit have to develop the basic design or just make an economic-technical report?

The Ministry of Construction responded to this issue as follows:

The preparation of the construction investment feasibility study report is specified in Clause 1, Article 52 of the Construction Law No. 50/2014/QH13, which has been amended and supplemented according to Clause 10, Article 1 of the Construction Law No.62/2020 /QH14.

Construction investment projects only need to make economic-technical reports on construction investment in the cases specified in Clause 3, Article 52 of the Law on Construction No. 50/2014/QH13, which has been amended and supplemented according to Clause 10, Article 1 of the Construction Law No. 62/2020/QH14 and Clause 3, Article 5 of the Government's Decree No. 15/2021/ND-CP dated March 3, 2021 detailing a number of contents on construction investment project management.

For the adjustment of investment policy to increase the total investment of the project (over 15 billion VND) as mentioned in the question of Ms. Ngoc Anh, needs to review the above provisions and base on the specific content of the project to determine whether the adjusted project falls under the case of making an adjusted construction investment feasibility study report or in the case where it is only necessary to make an economic-technical report on adjusted construction investment.
