These draft laws were passed by the 15th National Assembly and will take effect from January 1, 2025. They are being discussed, considered, and approved by the National Assembly for earlier implementation at the 7th session according to the process at one session with shortened procedures.
Speaking at the discussion session, delegate Ha Sy Dong, member of the National Assembly's Finance and Budget Committee, Permanent Vice Chairman of the Quang Tri Provincial People's Committee, expressed his agreement with the Government's submission to the National Assembly at this session for consideration of the decision to allow the Land Law, Housing Law, Real Estate Business Law, and Credit Institutions Law to take effect earlier for implementation, contributing to fundamentally solving institutional bottlenecks, especially from local management practices, and hoping that these laws will soon come into effect.
The reason is that the current laws are overlapping, contradictory, and have too many shortcomings in understanding and implementation. Some state officials violate the law, get into trouble with the law, or avoid and shirk responsibility, partly due to these shortcomings. Therefore, the sooner the above laws come into effect, the sooner the above situation will improve. Recently, the Government and relevant ministries and branches have consulted with localities to develop sub-law documents so that when the law comes into effect, it can be implemented immediately.
The delegate mentioned the issues pointed out by the National Assembly's Economic Committee, which also need to be given full attention, especially identifying and fully assessing the impact and influence on the business investment environment, the legitimate rights and interests of people and businesses, especially the reactions and psychology of society.
For example, the Economic Committee is concerned that some regulations that take effect 5 months earlier will cause difficulties for subjects due to higher management requirements and stricter implementation conditions. Explaining in report No. 155 dated June 20, the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment said that the Housing Law 2023 has very strict regulations on investment in the construction of multi-storey, multi-household housing (also known as mini apartments) for sale, lease, and lease-purchase purposes, requiring the establishment of housing construction projects or investment in construction that meets fire prevention and fighting requirements according to the provisions of the law on fire prevention and fighting; meeting construction investment requirements. This regulation is to overcome the situation of housing construction that does not meet the requirements in construction investment, leading to the recent fire and explosion incidents.
Therefore, the early effective regulation of the Housing Law will overcome practical problems that have occurred in recent times.
The delegate said that early implementation will more or less affect the investment and business environment because investors have prepared to meet the requirements from January 1, 2025. Therefore, it is recommended that all provisions with higher management requirements and stricter implementation conditions are encouraged to be implemented by the affected subjects from August 1 this year, and the effective date for applying sanctions is from January 1, 2025.
Regarding the conditions for ensuring early implementation, the Government's submission affirmed that there is sufficient basis for detailed regulations and guidance on law implementation to be issued to ensure progress and quality for the implementation of the Land Law, Housing Law, Real Estate Business Law and Law on Credit Institutions when these laws take effect from August 1, 2024.
Delegates believe that this is the basis for National Assembly deputies to vote to approve the early entry into force. What worries delegates is that the progress of issuing guiding documents depends largely on the preparation of ministries and branches.
In addition, regarding the Pilot Project for implementing commercial housing projects, many businesses want to resolve problems related to land for commercial housing, but to date this project has not been submitted to the National Assembly.
Delegates reflected some voters' opinions that if this pilot is also implemented from August 1, the early effect of the laws on land, housing, and real estate business will have a much more positive impact.
Delegate Ha Sy Dong emphasized the need for the National Assembly and the Government to take full responsibility before the People for the effectiveness of adjusting the enforcement and transitional provisions of laws.
It is recommended that before passing the law, the drafting agency send to the National Assembly issues that may arise when the above laws take effect early, if any, how to resolve them, which agency is responsible for resolving them so that when meeting with voters after the session, National Assembly deputies have a solid basis to answer voters.
Finally, the delegates approved these four draft laws to take effect from August 1, 2024 to create a strong driving force for the country's development, while strengthening the trust of people and businesses in the transparency and effectiveness of the Vietnamese legal system.
