Hanoi (VNA) – Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh on July 30 asked ministries, agencies and localities to step up the implementation of laws and resolutions of the 15th National Assembly at a national conference.
Jointly held by the Government and the NA Standing Committee, the conference on law and resolution implementation was connected with sites in the 63 cities and provinces.
In his closing remarks, the PM emphasised that suitable institutions will create motives for national development, saying they should pave the way for development breakthroughs, and maximise potential and creativity to serve industrialisation, modernisation and international integration.
In that spirit, he pointed to the need to establish a legal framework to promote the role of stakeholders; mechanisms and policies to mobilise and allocate resources; a healthy, fair, transparent and effective playground; a suitable legal framework to facilitate international integration; and effective operation mechanisms.
Chinh said the Government has coordinated with the NA Standing Committee and other relevant agencies in law and resolution implementation, adding the Government has asked ministries, agencies and localities to ensure resources for the work, with attention paid to personnel training.
Efforts have also been made to speed up the compilation and issuance of documents detailing the implementation work, and step up the communications work in this regard, he continued.
Noting some limitations in institution and law building, perfection and implementation, as well as the information work, the PM urged greater efforts and more drastic actions, with “enhancements” in law building progress and quality, legal review, coordination between agencies, and law dissemination.
He also ordered tightening disciplines, and promoting the responsibility of heads of agencies, as well as the role of civil servants in this regard, while increasing inspections and supervisions to promptly prevent and resolutely handle corrupt acts.
Ministries, agencies and localities were also asked to pay due heed to administrative procedures, saying cities and provinces need to work out plans on law and resolution implementation, and realise their assigned tasks, especially those supplemented in laws, resolutions, mechanisms and special, pilot policies in localities.
Expressing his approval for the building of a law amending others, the PM asked the Party Civil Affairs Committee of the Government and the Party delegation of the NA to coordinate more closely, regularly, inclusively and effectively.
He also suggested NA Committees and deputies continue their close coordination with the Government, ministries and agencies from the first steps of law building, ensuring feasibility of legal regulations.
The Vietnam Fatherland Front Central Committee and its member organiations were urged to raise opinions on the building and issuance of legal documents, and popularise laws by suitable measures, along with enhancing supervisions and social criticism./.
