Presenting the review report, Chairman of the National Assembly's Law Committee Hoang Thanh Tung said that the Law Committee agreed with the need to amend and supplement a number of articles of the Law on Supervisory Activities. The draft Law dossier was seriously prepared, basically ensuring full documentation according to the provisions of the Law on Promulgation of Legal Documents.
Regarding the viewpoint of law-making, the Law Committee emphasized a number of requirements that need to be thoroughly grasped and implemented synchronously in the process of building and promulgating the Law, such as: closely following the Party's policy on innovation, improving the effectiveness and efficiency of supervision activities; the content of amendments and supplements must be based on the results of summarizing practices, ensuring focus and key points, avoiding spreading or overlapping. Fully and seriously implementing solutions to innovate thinking in law-making, not legalizing contents that are not under the authority of the National Assembly, contents that need to be flexible to suit practical requirements...
Regarding some issues with different opinions, Chairman of the Law Committee Hoang Thanh Tung said that regarding the addition of new principles of supervision activities, the Law Committee has two types of opinions. The first type of opinion suggests considering the regulation of this content as a principle of supervision activities; the second type of opinion agrees with the addition of new principles as proposed in the Draft Law.
Regarding the regulation of the time for the National Assembly to review and discuss reports, many opinions in the Law Committee agreed with option 1 and said that regulating the time for the National Assembly to review and discuss at the mid-year session for a number of reports will help to reasonably regulate and reduce the already large workload of the National Assembly at the year-end sessions; create favorable conditions for the Government to fully synthesize the situation and data in 1 year, overcoming the situation where agencies have to collect data many times to serve the construction of reports to submit to the National Assembly, causing waste of resources.
Regarding the addition of the National Assembly's authority in reviewing the results of supervision, the majority of opinions in the Law Committee proposed not to add the provision that the National Assembly requires the Law Committee to issue documents explaining the Constitution, laws, and ordinances to be consistent with the provisions of the Law on Organization of the National Assembly and the Law on Promulgation of Legal Documents, which specifically stipulate the subjects with the right to request the Law Committee to explain the Constitution, laws, and ordinances and the order and procedures for explaining the Constitution, laws, and ordinances.
At the same time, it is proposed not to add a provision that the National Assembly requires the Government, the Prime Minister, and agencies to issue documents guiding laws, ordinances, and resolutions because this issue falls under the authority and proactive responsibility of agencies in organizing the implementation of the Constitution and laws, which has been specifically stipulated in the Law on Promulgation of Legal Documents and corresponding laws on organizational apparatus.
