Perfecting institutional synchronization
Innovation - proactiveness - companionship is not only a message but has been implemented in a drastic, systematic and effective manner during the term of the 15th National Assembly. In particular, the implementation of one of the three strategic breakthroughs proposed by the 13th National Party Congress is the synchronous completion of institutions. Our Party identifies institutional breakthroughs, focusing on legal breakthroughs as strategic breakthroughs. Based on its functions and tasks, the National Assembly has proactively led the implementation of legislative power and controlled the legislative process.
In recent times, the National Assembly has taken steps in the right direction, improving the quality and efficiency of its operations, strongly promoting democracy and the rule of law, fully implementing the people's right to mastery, and always keeping abreast of all developments in practice.

Actual operations show that the National Assembly not only strives to become a professional National Assembly, promoting democracy and increasing the rule of law, but also must be very flexible, closely following the practical situation of the country, and sharing the aspirations of the people and businesses.
With the motto "People trust, the National Assembly must work with all its might" as National Assembly Chairman Tran Thanh Man once emphasized and despite thoroughly "ensuring quality, not chasing quantity", the 15th National Assembly still set an unprecedented "record" in legislative activities, creating the most favorable conditions in terms of institutions, policies and resources, to effectively implement the goals of national development and international integration.
