Proposal to supplement housing rental support policy for teachers working in difficult areas

Continuing the working program on the afternoon of March 25, of the 7th Conference of full-time National Assembly deputies, term XV, giving opinions on the draft Law on Teachers, the Standing Committee of the National Assembly's Committee on Culture and Social Affairs said: Regarding the policy of supporting collective accommodation and renting public housing for teachers (Article 26), taking into account the opinions of National Assembly deputies, the draft Law is revised in the direction of stipulating that teachers are entitled to policies on renting public housing according to the provisions of the law on housing or are guaranteed collective housing when working in ethnic minority areas, mountainous areas, border areas, islands and areas with particularly difficult socio-economic conditions. At the same time, it is supplemented with a provision that in cases where collective accommodation or public housing cannot be arranged, teachers are supported with housing rental at the level of support for renting public housing (point a, clause 2, Article 26).

Regarding the early retirement policy for preschool teachers (Article 28), many opinions agree with the policy of early retirement according to the law for preschool teachers. However, it is proposed to add the criterion that teachers must have paid social insurance for 20 years or more to be eligible for early retirement and not have their pension rate deducted; there are opinions that are concerned about the resources to ensure the implementation of this policy and that the principle of having paid - having received must be ensured according to the Law on Social Insurance.

The Standing Committee of the Committee believes that allowing preschool teachers to retire earlier than the age prescribed by law is a policy built on the characteristics of their professional activities and is suitable for the characteristics of preschool learners.
