Concluding the Government's special meeting on law-making in September 2024 on September 23, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh said that at the 8th session of the 15th National Assembly, the Government plans to submit 15 draft laws to the National Assembly for approval; and submit 11 draft laws to the National Assembly for comments.
The Prime Minister emphasized that the task is very heavy, while there is very little time left from now until the 8th session.
Therefore, the Prime Minister requested ministries and branches to focus on perfecting laws, amending and supplementing regulations, in order to come up with breakthrough solutions to untie, remove bottlenecks, and unleash all resources for development.
The Prime Minister noted and fully implemented the Party's guidelines and policies into draft laws and ordinances.
In law-making, it is necessary to start from practice, respect, closely follow and take practice as a measure; ensure feasibility, ensure national and ethnic interests; the legitimate rights and interests of individuals and organizations; promote decentralization and thorough delegation of power.
At the same time, mobilize and allocate resources effectively; design tools to strengthen supervision, inspection and control of power; cut down and simplify administrative procedures, minimize costs for people and businesses, improve the investment and business environment; eliminate the mechanism of asking and giving, and reduce intermediaries.
The Head of Government requested that the law must design tools to enhance effective management suitable to Vietnam's conditions, but must also create conditions for development and facilitate the mobilization and effective use of resources.
In addition, encourage the creativity of people, businesses and related entities; ensure legal and legitimate rights and interests and have tools to handle violations of people, businesses and related entities, on the perspective of not criminalizing civil and economic relations.
The Prime Minister requested the development of laws that inherit the regulations that are still suitable and have positive impacts in current laws; what is mature, clear, proven to be correct in practice, effectively implemented, and agreed by the majority should continue to be implemented and legalized.
The contents that still have many different opinions and are still fluctuating are not specifically regulated in the draft law, but it is proposed that the Government regulate and provide specific instructions, learn from experience while doing, gradually expand, not be perfectionist, not hasty; manageable but must be open and clear about people, work, responsibilities, and results.
At the same time, we will make the most of the opinions of experts, scientists and related subjects; refer to international experiences suitable to Vietnam's conditions and circumstances; strengthen policy communication work, create social consensus in both the stages of building and perfecting laws and organizing law enforcement.
At the meeting, the Government discussed and gave opinions on the following contents: Draft Law on Data; Proposal to develop a Law on Personal Data Protection; Draft Law on amending and supplementing a number of articles of the Law on Health Insurance; Proposal to develop a Law on Lawyers (amended).
