In particular, the Prime Minister suggested that it is necessary to change the thinking of law making in the direction of: being both manageable and open, opening up and mobilizing all resources to develop the country, especially in the coming period to achieve double-digit growth, implementing the country's two 100-year goals; the law stipulates a framework, is principled, and specific issues in practice, which often occur faster than the provisions of the law, are assigned to the Government, ministries and branches to guide to suit the situation.
Along with that, review and resolutely eliminate the mechanisms of asking and giving, prevent and combat corruption, negativity, and group interests in the process of building laws and ordinances; do not criminalize economic relations and civil relations, and protect the legitimate and legal rights and interests of people and businesses.
The Government and ministries and branches only focus on state management, building strategies, planning, policies, laws, and developing tools to inspect and monitor law enforcement. At the same time, minimize administrative procedures and compliance costs for people and businesses; apply science and technology, digital transformation, reduce direct contact and transactions, and reduce negativity and petty corruption.
The Prime Minister also noted that the contents of draft laws and ordinances should be concise, easy to understand, clear in meaning, clear in authority, clear in responsibility, easy to understand, easy to inspect, easy to monitor; decentralization and delegation of authority should be strengthened, along with appropriate allocation of resources, improving the implementation capacity of all levels, strengthening supervision and inspection, strengthening post-inspection, and reducing pre-inspection.
The Prime Minister also requested that drafting agencies continue to seek opinions from affected subjects, relevant agencies, scientists, experts, refer to international experience, and at the same time do a good job of policy communication, especially with new and difficult issues.
Directing the urgent implementation of laws and resolutions recently passed by the National Assembly, the Prime Minister requested Ministers, Heads of ministerial-level agencies, Chairmen of People's Committees of provinces and centrally-run cities to focus on directing the timely drafting, submission, and promulgation of detailed regulations and instructions for the implementation of laws and resolutions passed by the National Assembly. At the same time, promptly propose amendments to the Law on Promulgation of Legal Documents in a practical spirit, avoiding unnecessary cumbersome procedures.
Ministries, sectors and localities continue to review issued laws, especially those that are complicated, outdated or not keeping up with reality, to perfect the legal system, to resolve any problems, to resolve the authority of each level, and to propose to competent authorities if they exceed their authority; to thoroughly grasp the requirements for innovation in the development and promulgation of legal documents, to continue to tighten discipline, order and control power in law-making.
Emphasizing that institutions are "bottlenecks of bottlenecks", "breakthroughs of breakthroughs", and "driving forces and resources for development", the Prime Minister requested ministers and heads of sectors to directly direct the work of law-making; actively participate in giving opinions on laws developed by other agencies; and continue to prioritize leadership, direction, investment of time, effort, human resources, and facilities in institutional work.
