Meanwhile, the Party Central Committee’s Inspection Commission will get more responsibilities and rights in examining and supervising the stocktaking of assets owned by officials under the management of the Politburo and the Secretariat.
The committee members also reached consensus on the introduction of personnel for senior positions at State agencies of the 2016-2021 tenure.

They also proposed nominees for the titles that they did not work on in the previous session or might be changed, so that the Politburo can officially propose them to the new National Assembly for consideration, election and approval.
Addressing the session, Party General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong emphasised that the committee should fulfil its duty and rights over major and important issues of the country, Party and State, including deciding key strategies and policies on socio-economy and State budget in the next five year and for each individual year, together with national defence, security, foreign relations, Party building and personnel work.
