(Dan Tri) - The promulgation of the Law on Fire Prevention and Fighting and Rescue is very necessary to meet the urgent requirements of fire prevention and fighting and rescue to serve the country's innovation and development and the peaceful life of the people.
Strengthening fire and explosion prevention, search and rescue work
According to the Fire Prevention and Fighting and Rescue Police Department (PCCC&CNCH), in response to the objective requirement of strengthening the work of PCCC&CNCH to protect production and ensure the peaceful life of the people, the Party, the National Assembly, and the State have issued instructions on the legalization of regulations on PCCC&CNCH to meet practical requirements.
In addition, the 13th Party Congress Document identifies strengthening fire and explosion prevention and control, search and rescue; promptly and effectively responding to non-traditional security threats, especially search and rescue tasks, natural disaster and epidemic prevention and control; effectively implementing social policies, ensuring social security and human security...

Authorities said that the regulation of CNCH tasks in legal documents is to protect human rights and civil rights according to the provisions of the 2013 Constitution.
In fact, the Fire Prevention and Rescue Police force is still carrying out tasks related to state management of fire prevention and rescue and is the core and permanent force in this work.
In addition, the Fire Prevention and Rescue Police Force has all the conditions, professional capabilities, forces, and means to perform search and rescue tasks. However, currently, only fire prevention and rescue activities are regulated in the Law on Fire Prevention and Fighting; search and rescue activities are regulated in Decree No. 83/2017/ND-CP dated July 18, 2017, regulating the rescue work of the fire prevention and fighting force, so it does not ensure consistency and uniformity in the provisions of the legal system, is not in accordance with the 2013 Constitution, and does not ensure the legal basis for the Fire Prevention and Rescue Police Force to perform its tasks.
According to the Fire Prevention and Rescue Police Department, through consulting the experiences of many countries in the world such as Japan, Korea, Russia, USA, Germany, France, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia... all assigned the task of rescue to specialized Fire Prevention and Rescue forces as the core.
In addition, the coordination with other forces at the grassroots level has brought high efficiency in search and rescue work when situations and incidents occur.
"Therefore, the promulgation of the Law on Fire Prevention and Fighting and Rescue will overcome the limitations, difficulties and inadequacies of current laws and meet the above-mentioned objective practical requirements," informed the Fire Prevention and Fighting and Rescue Police Department.
Purpose and viewpoints when building the Law on Fire Prevention and Fighting and Rescue
According to the Fire Prevention and Fighting and Rescue Police Department, there are three purposes in developing the Fire Prevention and Fighting and Rescue Law. The first is to institutionalize the Party's viewpoints and policies on strengthening and improving the effectiveness and efficiency of state management of fire prevention and fighting; to concretize and create a legal basis to ensure the implementation of the provisions of the 2013 Constitution on human rights and civil rights.
Second, it meets practical requirements for ensuring security and order; protecting human life and health, and property of the state, agencies, organizations, and individuals; and creating a safe environment for economic, cultural, social development and international integration.
Third is to create a complete legal basis for fire prevention and fighting and search and rescue activities; ensure consistency and unity in the legal system; overcome limitations, difficulties and inadequacies of current laws and supplement regulations to meet practical requirements in the new situation.
In addition, there are also 3 viewpoints when building the Law on Fire Prevention and Fighting and Rescue. One is to comply with the Constitution, ensure unity and synchronization in the legal system; ensure that the provisions of the law are specific and feasible.
Second, to fully and comprehensively summarize the practical implementation of laws on fire prevention and fighting and search and rescue; to inherit relevant regulations, overcome limitations, difficulties, and inadequacies, and to supplement new regulations to improve the effectiveness of fire prevention and fighting and search and rescue work.
Third, selectively refer to the laws of some countries on fire prevention and fighting and search and rescue to apply regulations suitable to practical conditions in Vietnam.
