At the National Development Conference, Huang was a major proponent of freezing provincial elections. Since becoming minister of the interior he has worried the provincial government by stating, "The provincial government was established by the central government, and has no status as an independent legal entity."
黃主文曾是國發會中主張「凍省」的大將，上台後即提出「省是中央派出的機關，不具法人地位」的看法，而引起省方關切。
