He assigned the Ministry of Justice, the relevant ministries, and branches to coordinate with the Government Office to fully absorb the opinions and complete and issue the Conclusion of this important conference to unify the implementation.
The Prime Minister emphasized several contents on the importance of institution and law building and completion; the results achieved; existing limitations and shortcomings; lessons learned; and tasks and solutions for the time coming.
Regarding the importance of institution and law building and completion, the Prime Minister clarified that institution building and completion is one of the three strategic breakthroughs and a major policy of the Party. Investing in institutions is investing in development.
The 13th National Party Congress emphasized the direction of continuing to strongly renew thinking and building and completing a sustainable institution on the economy, politics, culture, society, and the environment, … promptly overcoming difficulties and obstacles; unleashing all potentials and resources, creating new momentum for rapid and sustainable development.
The institution must go early and pave the way for development breakthroughs, maximizing potential and creativity, and meeting the needs of promoting industrialization, modernization, and international integration.
In the context of the fast-changing situation and high demands, the Prime Minister emphasized the requirement to promote a proactive, flexible, and creative spirit in the law-making and law enforcement process with thinking, methods, and methodology suitable to the conditions and circumstances of the country; concretizing and institutionalizing the Party’s guidelines and orientations and taking the people and businesses as the center and subject, with the people and businesses actively participating in this process, and all policies must be directed towards the people and businesses according to the mechanism of “Party leadership, State management, and people mastership.” When the law comes into life and is supported by the people, it serves the people and the country’s development requirements.
The Prime Minister outlined the “5 Creations” of the institution for the country’s rapid and sustainable development: (i) Create a legal basis to build and develop the capacity of the subjects, promoting the proper role of each subject; (ii) Create mechanisms and policies to mobilize and allocate all resources; harmonize the development interests of the subjects; (iii) Create a healthy, equal, transparent, appropriate, and effective “playing field” for the subjects in each field; (iv) Create a suitable legal framework for effective international integration, ensuring national and ethnic interests; (v) Create an effective control mechanism, preventing and overcoming risks and negativities.
Agreeing with the reports and opinions evaluating the results achieved, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh pointed out the existing limitations and shortcomings in this work, such as the process of building and issuing legal documents going through many layers, slowing down the progress of issuance and organization. Implementation; the organization of law enforcement is still a weak link; the debt situation of guiding documents detailing the implementation of laws and ordinances; the work of reviewing, systematizing, and codifying has not been promoted strongly; the propagation, dissemination, and education of laws are sometimes ineffective; the team of officials and civil servants working on law-making has not been strengthened to meet the requirements of the task; the mechanism of division of work, coordination between agencies in building and organizing the implementation of laws and ordinances is not uniform, sometimes dispersed, and sometimes local.
Analyzing the causes and drawing lessons, the Prime Minister emphasized that the most important lesson is the involvement, attention, and direction of the leaders with a passionate and responsible spirit, along with a close attachment to reality, the needs and aspirations of the people, and the difficulties that need to be overcome. Only discuss doing, not discuss backing down, and doing must have specific products and be effective to build a suitable, feasible, and effective system of laws.
Timely issuance of 121 documents detailing laws and resolutions
Regarding the orientations, key tasks, and solutions for the coming time, the Prime Minister requested the ministers, branch heads, and chairmen of the People’s Committees of the provinces and cities to continue with high determination, great efforts, and drastic actions, focusing on key tasks and targets; assigning “clear people, clear tasks, clear time, clear products, and clear effects” in law-making and law enforcement.
The Prime Minister clarified the action principle of “5 Promotings”, including: Promoting the progress and quality of law-making according to the set schedule; promoting the removal of difficulties and obstacles from reality; promoting the review, systematization, and codification; promoting the mechanism of division of work, decentralization, and delegation of suitable, feasible, and effective powers to the agencies in building and organizing the implementation of laws and ordinances; and promoting the propagation and education of laws.
Through this conference, the Government agreed with the National Assembly Standing Committee to continue reviewing the existing difficulties in the system of legal documents and researching and proposing to the National Assembly Standing Committee and the National Assembly to issue a law amending many laws.
Along with that, the Party Committee of the Government, the Party delegation of the National Assembly, coordinate closely, effectively, regularly, comprehensively, timely, and effectively. At the same time, continue to innovate the methods of organizing National Assembly sessions, such as a session that can be held in many rounds, combining direct and online methods; agencies of the National Assembly and the Government proactively coordinate from the early stages in law-making and law enforcement.
To synchronously and effectively deploy the laws and resolutions passed by the National Assembly, the Prime Minister requested the ministries, branches, agencies, and localities to continue to thoroughly grasp the guidelines and orientations of the Party put forth in the Documents of the XIII Congress, especially the Resolution of the 13th Party Congress, the resolutions and conclusions of the Central Committee, especially Resolution No. 27-NQ/TW on continuing to build and perfect the socialist law-governed state of Vietnam in the new period and Regulation No. 178-QD/TW dated June 27, 2024, of the Politburo on controlling power and preventing and combating corruption and negativity in law-making.
