As planned, each law and resolution project will have 0.25 days of discussion in groups and 0.5 days in the hall, with flexible adjustments depending on the nature of the content. In addition, one day at the beginning of November will be allocated for group discussions on the draft documents to be submitted to the 14th Congress of the Party; while arranging group discussions for the Law on Supervision Activities of the National Assembly and People’s Councils (amended), and the Law on Planning (amended).
The session for questioning and answering questions is expected to take place within 2 days, a reduction of one day from the initial plan.

Some reports on socio-economic issues and state budget will be presented together at the plenary session.
