Detecting risks before forming violations
On the afternoon of March 5, in Hanoi, General Secretary To Lam had a working session with the Central Inspection Committee on the results of implementing the task of advising on building and perfecting institutions to prepare for the second Conference of the 14th Party Central Committee.
Attending the working session were Politburo members, Secretary of the Party Central Committee: Head of the Central Organization Committee Le Minh Hung; Chairman of the Central Inspection Committee Tran Sy Thanh; Head of the Central Internal Affairs Commission Le Minh Tri; Head of the Central Policy and Strategy Commission Nguyen Thanh Nghi; Chief of the Party Central Committee Office Pham Gia Tuc.
Also attending were Politburo Member, Director of the Ho Chi Minh National Academy of Politics Doan Minh Huan; leaders of central Party committees and the Central Party Office.
Immediately after the 14th Party Congress, the Central Inspection Committee focused on advising on building, amending, and supplementing regulations on inspection and supervision work; urgently implementing projects to report to the Politburo for consideration and submission to the 2nd Central Conference of the 14th term, including: Working regulations of the 14th Central Inspection Committee; Report summarizing 20 years of implementing Resolution No. 14-NQ/TW, dated July 30, 2007, on strengthening the Party's inspection and supervision work; draft Regulation replacing Regulation No. 296-QD/TW, dated May 30, 2025 of the Central Executive Committee on inspection, supervision and Party discipline.
Speaking at the conclusion of the working session, General Secretary To Lam acknowledged and highly appreciated the Central Inspection Committee for its efforts, efforts, dynamism, urgency, and close coordination with relevant agencies to study and develop 3 projects to submit to the 2nd Plenum of the 14th Central Committee.
According to the General Secretary, inspection and supervision are both an important leadership method of the Party and a mechanism for the Party to self-rectify, self-protect, self-improve, and self-improve; are tools to control power, maintain discipline and order throughout the Party; and are factors to ensure that the correct Party's guidelines are seriously and effectively implemented in practice.
The entire Party jointly works on inspection and supervision
Regarding the specific contents of the Resolution and Regulations, the General Secretary proposed to strongly shift the inspection and supervision work to the goal of early and remote prevention; control power right in the operation process; detect risks before violations are formed. Expand supervision, ensuring that all guidelines, policies, and guidelines of the Party are organized and implemented seriously and effectively.
The General Secretary noted, clarifying the responsibilities of Party committees, Party organizations and each Party cell, each party member in the work of inspection, supervision, and enforcement of Party discipline. Inspection and supervision is not a private matter of the Inspection Committees at all levels.
Each Party committee and Party organization must identify this as their important political responsibility; must proactively develop programs and plans for inspection and supervision close to reality; promptly detect and rectify violations; not entrust everything, not shirk responsibility to inspection agencies.
The Party cell - the foundation of the Party - must be the place to conduct regular, close, and most direct supervision of cadres and party members. All manifestations of degradation and violations, if detected early right in the Party cell, will not accumulate into major violations. Each party member is also responsible for participating in supervision in their organization according to the principle of democratic centralism, criticism and self-criticism. In other words, it is necessary to thoroughly grasp the spirit of "the entire Party working together in inspection and supervision".
The General Secretary requested that it is necessary to ensure both strictness and constructiveness; resolutely handle violations, without forbidden zones, without exceptions; but must protect those who dare to innovate, dare to break through, dare to take responsibility for the common good.
The work of inspecting and supervising the implementation of Party discipline must be truly standard, fair, not mechanical, rigid, not creating the mentality of "safety is paramount", not daring to decide, not daring to do, slowing down the pace of national development. At the same time, it is also necessary to improve the mechanism of power control right in the inspection and supervision work, ensuring that all inspection activities are objective, transparent, and in accordance with principles.
The General Secretary emphasized to continue to improve the mechanism for close and synchronous coordination between the Party's inspection work and the State's inspection, auditing, investigation, prosecution, and trial activities.
