Judicial work has had many breakthroughs.
Regarding the field under the responsibility of the Ministry of Justice, the National Assembly Chairman stated that in recent times, with the attention of the Party and State, determination, responsible efforts, the judicial sector has achieved many comprehensive and important results.
Since the beginning of the 15th term, the Ministry of Justice has been more carefully prepared and innovated in the way it advises the Government to submit to the National Assembly for approval Resolutions on the annual law and ordinance building program, closely following Conclusion 19-KL/TW, Plan 81/KH-UBTVQH15 and the Law on Promulgation of Legal Documents.
The appraisal of draft laws and resolutions of the Ministry of Justice is systematic, responsible and of high quality. The Ministry of Justice and ministries, branches and localities have strengthened inspection and self-inspection of legal documents, detecting documents with errors and violations of regulations on form, content and authority. The number of documents processed is higher than in the previous period, contributing to ensuring the constitutionality, legality and consistency of the legal system. The effectiveness and efficiency of state management of asset auction activities have been improved. Basically, the implementation of judicial appraisal meets the requirements of litigation activities.
The National Assembly Chairman said that, in addition to the achieved results, the judiciary still has limitations such as the tendency to add projects to the Law-making Program not following the Overall Program or being proposed close to the time of the National Assembly session or the meeting of the National Assembly Standing Committee. Some projects have not been carefully studied in terms of scope of regulation and policy impact. The quality of some draft laws is not high, there are still conflicts, overlaps or unclear regulations, making it difficult to organize implementation. The lifespan of some decrees and circulars is very short, having to be amended and supplemented as soon as they are issued. The work of self-inspecting legal documents under the authority of some ministerial and provincial agencies has not been carried out seriously, fully, promptly and regularly...

Continue to thoroughly grasp and seriously implement the tasks, solutions, and requirements for innovation and improve the quality of law-making activities set forth in Conclusion No. 19-KL/TW and Plan No. 81/KH-UBTVQH15 and the resolutions and conclusions of the National Assembly Standing Committee on legislative work since the beginning of the term.
