At the 2nd Plenum of the 14th Central Committee, the Central Executive Committee gave opinions on summarizing 20 years of implementing Resolution No. 3 of the 10th Central Committee on strengthening the Party's leadership in the work of preventing and combating corruption and wastefulness.
The Party Central Committee unanimously assessed: After 20 years of implementing Resolution No. 3 of the 10th Central Committee, the work of preventing and combating corruption, wastefulness, and negativity (TNLPTC) has been led and directed drastically, persistently, synchronously, and comprehensively, achieving many very important results, with strong progress and major breakthroughs; thinking and methods of leadership and direction continue to be innovated; institutions, mechanisms, policies, and laws are gradually being improved; inspection, supervision, examination, audit, investigation, prosecution, trial, control of power and preventive measures have been strengthened, contributing to curbing, preventing, and repelling TNLPTC.
