On the afternoon of May 8, under the chairmanship of Comrade Lai The Nguyen, Standing Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Head of the Provincial National Assembly Delegation, the National Assembly Delegation of Thanh Hoa province held a conference to collect comments on the draft Road Law and the draft Law on Road Traffic Safety and Order (ATGT) to serve the law-making work at the 7th Session of the 15th National Assembly.
Conference overview.
Attending the conference were Comrade Cao Thi Xuan, Vice Chairwoman of the National Assembly's Ethnic Council; National Assembly Deputies of Thanh Hoa Province's National Assembly Delegation; representatives of the provincial Fatherland Front Committee, provincial departments, branches and districts, towns and cities.
Comrade Lai The Nguyen, Standing Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Head of the Provincial National Assembly Delegation chaired the conference.
At the conference, delegates basically agreed that: After more than 15 years of implementing the Road Traffic Law, there have been positive impacts on ensuring order and traffic safety, and raising awareness of traffic participants.
However, the implementation of the Law has also revealed some difficulties and problems. The main reason is that the two areas of management and development of transport infrastructure and management of security, order and traffic safety are different, with many contents that do not meet current practical requirements.
Delegates attending the conference.
Therefore, it is extremely necessary to separate the 2008 Road Traffic Law into two laws: the Road Law and the Road Traffic Order and Safety Law; helping the authorities to be proactive in advising the Party and State on policies and strategies on ensuring security and order, effectively implementing tasks and solutions to implement the strategy of protecting national security, ensuring social order and safety.
