Overcoming the situation where laws are enacted, localities can implement them, but localities cannot

Chairman of the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Do Van Chien, speaking at the conference, highly appreciated the National Assembly's focus and positivity in building laws and legal documents since the beginning of the term, contributing significantly to solving practical difficulties and promoting national development.

The Chairman of the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front also reflected on the current reality, that is, with the same content of work, the same legal system, one locality can implement it, another locality considers it a problem, unable to implement it. This shows that legal awareness is different due to different capacities of officials.

The Chairman of the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front requested the National Assembly Standing Committee and the Government to pay more attention to the implementation of regulations on the interpretation of the Constitution, laws and ordinances to promptly handle issues arising in practice.

Greater efforts and determination to implement laws and resolutions issued by the National Assembly

In his concluding remarks at the conference, National Assembly Chairman Vuong Dinh Hue acknowledged that the Government, Prime Minister, ministries, branches and localities have proactively and resolutely implemented many synchronous solutions to implement laws and resolutions of the National Assembly.

However, through reports and discussions at the conference, it was also shown that the implementation of laws and resolutions still has many shortcomings and limitations, such as some laws were issued from 2022 but up to now, the relevant ministries have not yet issued an implementation plan. In particular, there are 6 laws passed at the 5th Session that will take effect from January 1, 2024 and July 1, 2024 but there is still no implementation plan.

Emphasizing 9 groups of tasks that need to be prioritized to promote the effective implementation of laws and resolutions issued by the National Assembly since the beginning of the term; the National Assembly Chairman requested the Government, ministries, central branches and localities to make greater efforts, greater determination, and coordinate more closely and effectively in implementing laws and resolutions of the National Assembly, in order to bring the National Assembly's decisions into life, making practical contributions to the completion of socio-economic development goals and tasks, ensuring national defense and security, international integration, and continuing to build and perfect institutions and the socialist rule-of-law State of Vietnam.

The National Assembly Chairman expressed his belief that the responsible, proactive, effective and close supervision of the National Assembly, together with the capacity and determination to seriously and creatively implement the law of the Government, and the close coordination of agencies will be an important basis for implementing "modern and effective national governance", contributing to the clear changes in the implementation of laws and resolutions, achieving more positive results in time, meeting the development requirements of the country, the expectations and trust of National Assembly deputies, voters and the people.
