Comrade Ngo Dong Hai, member of the Party Central Committee, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Head of the National Assembly delegation of Thai Binh province, and National Assembly deputies of Thai Binh province attended the meeting.

Participating in the discussion, the delegates basically agreed with the necessity of extending the repayment period for the refinancing loan according to Resolution No. 135/2020/QH14 dated November 17, 2020 of the National Assembly on the 10th Session, 14th National Assembly and agreed with the content proposed by the Government to be included in a clause in Article 1 of the draft Resolution of the 7th Session, 15th National Assembly.

Regarding the contents of salary reform; adjustment of pensions, social insurance benefits, preferential benefits for meritorious people and social benefits from July 1, 2024, National Assembly deputies unanimously assessed that, in the past time, the Government has made efforts to institutionalize Resolution No. 27-NQ/TW dated May 21, 2018 of the 7th Conference of the 12th Party Central Committee on reforming salary policies for cadres, civil servants, public employees, armed forces and employees in enterprises and related Party resolutions.

However, based on the difficulties and shortcomings identified in fully and synchronously implementing the contents of public sector salary reform according to Resolution No. 27-NQ/TW, delegates agreed with the view that it is necessary to implement salary reform and related policies according to a suitable roadmap, step by step, cautiously, firmly, ensuring feasibility, efficiency, and conformity with the payment capacity of the state budget and other contents stated in the Government's report.

At the same time, opinions suggested that the Government continue to conduct comprehensive research, propose to competent authorities for policies to perfect salary tables, allowance regimes, salary increase regimes, bonus regimes, implementation resources, salary and income management mechanisms to ensure that salary policy reform is truly a driving force to promote socio-economic development. The Government needs to strengthen communication work so that meritorious people, pensioners, cadres, civil servants, public employees, workers and people understand the policy correctly and create social consensus when organizing implementation.
