Hanoi(VNA) – Officials in charge of ombudsman work should precisely and quickly reflectvoters’ aspirations and pressing issues, while further improving theirsupervision over the settlement of lodged petitions and denunciations in 2019,said National Assembly Vice Chairman Do Ba Ty.
He made the request at a conference reviewing works in 2018 and launching tasksfor 2019 of the ombudsman board of the National Assembly Standing Committee inHanoi on January 14.
He said the number of petitions and denunciations would increase and lodgedissues would be complicated in 2019.
Meanwhile, the implementation of 2019’s tasks on making laws, supervision, anddeciding important national issues require greater efforts from the ombudsmanboard as well as the National Assembly and its committees, he said.
He asked for better coordination and sharing of information between theombudsman board, and the NA committees, ministries, sectors, and the VietnamFatherland Front in performing 2019 tasks.
In 2018, the board’s officials received 1,167 people and delegations whosubmitted a total of 1,037 cases. They received over 18,700 petitions, a surgeof 38.77 percent from 2017, of which 1,239 petitions were eligible forhandling, said deputy head of the ombudsman board Do Van Duong.
The gathering ofpetitions of voters before and after the NA’s sessions was carried outscientifically, openly and promptly, and the supervision over the handling ofpetitions was serious, he said.
As a result, all petitions sent by voters from the beginning of the 14th NA to date have been addressed to their deadlines while those which have yet tobe handled will be informed about the time needed for processing, he said.-VNA
