To add the following Clauses 3 and 4 to Article 4: "3. Subtraction method means a method of determining the price of a land plot with attached assets by subtracting the value of assets attached to land from the total value of the real estate (including the value of land and the value of attached assets). 2.

The position of land is determined based on the distance from the place of residence of the land users' community to the place of production, the distance from the place of production to a major outlet and the degree of convenience of communications. Differentiation of land positions is based on the factor of distance combined with the factors of soil features, terrain, climate, weather and irrigation conditions of each region: delta, midland and mountain, classified according to communes' administrative territories. The position of land is determined on the principle that position No. 1 applies to land areas where the place of residence of the land users' community to the place of production and the distance from the place of production to a major outlet are nearest and where communications are most convenient. This position is followed by positions from No. 2 onwards characterized by longer distances and less convenient communications." 8. To amend and supplement Article 11 as follows: a/ To amend the title of Article 11 into the following: "Article 11.- Competence to classify land regions, street grades and land positions for land price determination" b/ To amend and supplement Article 11 as follows: "Basing themselves on the provisions of Articles 8, 9 and 10 of Decree No. 181/2004/ND-CP and Clauses 6 and 7, Article 1 of this Decree and the practical situation of each locality, provincial-level People's Committee shall issue specific criteria and prescribe the classification of regions, kinds and positions of land as bases for land price determination.

If the river, lake, canal, hill, mountain pass or mountain is over 100 meters in width, it is not categorized as adjacent land." 10.

In each land region, the price of land at position No. 1 has the highest price; land in positions from No. 2 onwards has corresponding lower prices. d/ In the following cases, the land price is equal to the price of perennial crop land at position No. 1 in the same region in a province: - Garden and pond land lying in the same land plot with a house which is not determined as residential land; - Agricultural land lying within the administrative boundaries of a ward, within the residential area of a township or a rural residential area already delimited under a planning already approved by a competent state agency; - For agricultural land lying within a residential area of a township or a rural residential area without an approved planning, it shall be determined according to the boundaries of the outermost land plot with a house in the residential area; Based on the practical situation in their localities, provincial-level People's Committees may prescribe higher prices in the above cases which, however, must not exceed twice the price of perennial tree land at position No. 1 in the same region already set by provincial-level People's Committees. e/ For rural non-agricultural land lying along main roads, traffic hubs, trade zones, tourist resort or industrial parks, provincial-level People's Committees shall base themselves on the practical situation in their localities to prescribe appropriate land prices on the principles that: - For residential land, the prices set by provincial-level People's Committees must not exceed 5 times the maximum price level in the rural residential land bracket stipulated by the Government; - For non-agricultural production and business land, the prices set by provincial-level People's Committees must not exceed 3 times the maximum price level of the rural land price bracket stipulated by the Government." 11. To amend Point a, Clause 1 of Article 14 into the following: a/ When determining the prices of land in adjacent areas between provinces or centrally run cities, the People's Committees of the provinces with these adjacent land areas shall base themselves on the provisions of Clause 1, Article 12 of Decree No. 188/2004/ND-CP and Clause 9, Article 1 of this Decree to reach agreement on the land prices and plans on adjustment of land prices in the adjacent areas on the principles that: - For adjacent land areas of a certain category, the price bracket stipulated by the Government for such category is applied; - For adjacent land areas with the same natural conditions, infrastructure and use purposes, their prices are the same; In special cases, when economic and social conditions and common infrastructures in two localities are different, the prices in adjacent areas may differ by 30% at most." 12. To amend Article 15 into the following: "Article 15.- Adjustment of specific prices of land of different categories in localities 1. When competent authorities adjust land use plannings or plans, change land use purposes, change urban center grades, street grades or land positions, provincial-level People's Committees shall adjust the prices of land in regions where such changes occur as appropriate according to current regulations. 2. In case of allocation of land by the State with collection of land use levy not through land use right auction or bidding for projects involving land use, land recovery by the State or allocation of land as selected by equitized state enterprises, if land prices prescribed by provincial-level People's Committees at the time of land allocation, issuance of land recovery decisions or inclusion of land prices into the value of equitized enterprises are not close to actual market land prices under normal conditions, provincial-level People's Committees shall base themselves on the actual market prices of land use right transfer in their localities to decide on specific land prices as appropriate without having to observe the provisions of Clause 5, Article 1 of this Decree. 3. Before making decisions on any adjustment of land prices at some land positions, land regions and land categories in a year falling under their competence, provincial-level People's Committees shall prepare plans and submit them to the standing boards of the People's Councils of the same level for comment, and report their decisions to the People's Councils of the same level at the nearest session."
