units for sale.

sold to vehicles at ticket control stations.
The ticket can be sold in

commute daily on the expressway and bridge. In this sale mode, a purchase of 50
tickets or more shall be given a 1% discount on each of the tickets.

On the basis of the variety of
the vehicles on the expressway and the rates already fixed, the toll-collecting
unit shall design a plan for the collection and its cost to submit to the
Ministry of Transport and Communications for approval after consulting with the
Ministry of Finance.
Everyday, except for the portion
which is allowed to be kept according to the approved plan, the toll-collecting
unit shall remit all the toll money to the State Budget through the State
Treasury.
The expenditure plan comprises
the following:
The wages and allowances for the
collectors, expenditures on printing tickets and receipts, books and charts
used in the control, management and accounting, expenditures on office and
property maintenance and repair and other managerial costs.
All expenditures on the
maintenance and repair of the expressway are allocated in the annual budget and
shall be disbursed in accordance with existing regulations.
In the year of 1994, because the
regular maintenance expenditure has not been included in the plan for repair of
the expressway, the unit in charge shall draw up a plan for this expenditure to
submit to the authorized offices for approval as addition to the expenditure
plan for 1994.
2. Accounting and financial
statement:
a) Accounting:
The toll-collecting unit shall
open books recording generals and details of the collecting activities and use
of the toll on the expressway and the bridge and make full accounts of revenues
and expenditures according to the above regulations.

b) Financial statement:
Every month, the toll-collecting
unit shall file timely reports on the amount collected and its use (including
remittances to the budget and withholdings for planned expenditures) to the Tax
Department and State Treasury of Hanoi and send reports to the Ministry of
Transport and Communications and the Ministry of Finance for record.
Every quarter and year, the
toll-collecting unit shall file a financial statement on the collection and use
of the toll in accordance with the current regulations on accounting.
The Ministry of Transport and
Communications shall cooperate with the Ministry of Finance to provide regular
control over the collection and use of the toll and review the annual financial
statement of the toll-collecting unit.
IV. REWARDS AND SANCTIONS
- Any vehicle owner who violates
the regulations on the toll collection such as using tickets not in accordance
with the set rates, abstaining from buying tickets, etc. shall have, besides
buying the toll ticket as required by the set rate, to pay a fine four times
the ticket price (this fine shall not be included in the production cost or
accounted in the budget expenditure). If he intentionally causes troubles and
hinders the traffic, he shall be subjected to sanctions provided for by the law
in force.
- To encourage toll-collection,
the joint ministries allow the collecting unit it to put aside 1.5% of the
total toll to set up a reward and welfare fund, but the reward fund shall not
exceed three months of the basic salary of the staff. The maximum fund for
welfare shall not exceed the fund for reward. The rest shall be remitted to the
State Budget.
