In addition to the contents of legislative, supervisory and decision-making on socio-economic issues, personnel work will be a highlight that voters and people pay special attention to.

According to Ms. Ta Thi Yen, based on the decision of the Central Executive Committee and the submission of competent authorities, the National Assembly will consider and decide on the election, approval or dismissal of a number of leadership positions in the State apparatus.

"This is a regular process to ensure inheritance, stability and efficiency of the apparatus in the new situation" - Ms. Ta Thi Yen emphasized.

According to the Vice Chairman of the Delegation Work Committee, the entire personnel process will be conducted in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution and the law, ensuring democracy, objectivity and transparency.

National Assembly deputies will fully exercise their rights and responsibilities before the people and voters through secret ballot, in compliance with the principle of democratic centralism.

Ms. Ta Thi Yen emphasized that the personnel work at this session is a step to perfect the apparatus in the final stage of the term, and at the same time preparing for the 16th National Assembly. This will create a foundation for the state apparatus to operate more effectively and efficiently under the leadership of the Party and the unity in the political system, as well as the consensus of the people.

It is expected that personnel work will be conducted on the last day of the first working week of the session. The steps of introducing, discussing and secret ballot will be carried out strictly and in accordance with the process.

Regarding the specific number of approved positions, Ms. Yen said that this is a content under the authority of the National Assembly and will be decided based on the Government's submission and the Politburo's introduction. The National Assembly Standing Committee will report specifically at the time of submission to the National Assembly on personnel work.

This is not only a step to perfect the organizational apparatus but also creates a solid foundation for the effective and efficient operation of the state apparatus in the next stage.

In response to the work's requirements, Ms. Ta Thi Yen said that one of the major orientations for the election of 16th National Assembly deputies and People's Councils at all levels for the 2026-2031 term is to continue to restructure, improve the quality and increase the proportion of full-time National Assembly deputies.
