Hanoi (VNA) – President Tran Dai Quang chaired the first session of the Central Steering Committee for Judicial Reform in the 2016-2021 tenure in Hanoi on September 17.
With a high sense of responsibility, committee members contributed their ideas on specific contents of the committee’s draft working regulations for 2016-2021 as well as its key tasks during 2016-2020.
President Quang, who is head of the committee, required committee members to actively inspect and speed up preparations of plans to carry out the 2016-2021 working regulations, as well as propose measures and policies to effectively implement the judicial reform task to be submitted to the Political Bureau and the Secretariat of the Party Central Committee.
He requested the steering committee to review the implementation of its tasks every six months or every year and set forth key missions for the following years.
Priority should be given to studying the supplementation and revision of the Penal Code as well as building documents guiding the enforcement of new laws and codes on judicial procedures adopted by the National Assembly, and improving the efficiency of operations of judicial offices, and organisations of lawyers and notaries, he suggested.
The State leader asked committee members to strictly follow key tasks to ensure the leadership of the Party and strengthen international cooperation in judicial reform.
He also stressed the importance of improving the knowledge and skills of judicial officers and implementing measures to prevent negative deeds in judicial activities.-VNA
