Unlike usual practice, at this session, the Government will submit to the National Assembly for consideration and approval several key draft laws and resolutions. National Assembly Chairman Tran Thanh Man said, “We need to make efforts, be responsible, and coordinate closely to ensure the successful organization of the session, creating a determined atmosphere from the beginning of the term, and promptly delivering the Resolution of the 14th National Congress of the Communist Party of Vietnam and other important resolutions of the Party Central Committee."
"Continue to effectively remove institutional bottlenecks and resolve obstacles. We must ensure the stable, smooth, and efficient operation of the two-tier local government,” according to Mr. Man.
