Before the discussion, the National Assembly listened to reports on crime prevention and control and law violations in 2023; the work in 2023 of the Chief Justice of the Supreme People's Procuracy, the People's Court, on judgment enforcement, and corruption prevention and control.

In particular, regarding the work of preventing and combating corruption, the police investigation agencies have investigated 1,103 cases/2,951 defendants of corruption crimes. The total amount of property damage in the cases being handled and investigated is over 2,280 billion VND and 101,871.8 million m2 land; recovered over 1,349 billion VND and 29,276 m2land, temporarily detained 1 savings book worth 300 million VND, more than 8 billion VND, 3 real estates, and at the same time prevented transactions for 01 land use rights certificate.

The investigation agency concluded the investigation and proposed to prosecute 499 cases/1,205 defendants; temporarily suspended the investigation of 26 cases/65 defendants; suspended the investigation of 5 cases/3 defendants; changed the charges, separated/merged 25 cases/28 defendants; the Supreme People's Procuracy canceled the decision to prosecute 2 cases/1 defendant; currently investigating 544 cases/1,635 defendants.

The enforcement of judgments related to the recovery of corrupt assets increased by 22.8% compared to 2022 with 4,879 cases; of which 3,374 cases were eligible for execution, 2,264 cases were completed (an increase of 19.47% compared to 2022), reaching a rate of 67.10%.

The total amount to be enforced is more than 97.2 trillion VND, an increase of more than 7.6 trillion VND compared to 2022); of which, there are conditions for enforcement of more than 49.6 trillion VND and more than 20.4 trillion VND has been enforced, an increase of 27.62% compared to 2022, reaching a rate of 41.11%.

According to reports from ministries, branches, localities, relevant agencies, organizations and units, in 2023, 55 heads and deputy heads were found to be irresponsible for allowing corruption to occur; 13 heads and deputy heads were criminally prosecuted for lack of responsibility for allowing corruption to occur; 42 heads and deputy heads were disciplined for lack of responsibility for allowing corruption to occur (of which 16 were reprimanded; 13 were warned; and 13 were dismissed). The handling of responsibilities of heads has had a deterrent effect, enhancing the role and responsibility of heads in anti-corruption work at the agencies and units under their charge.

In addition to the achieved results, according to the Government Inspectorate, the situation of corruption and negativity in some fields is still complicated and serious, with major violations in the fields of land, bidding, securities, corporate bonds, banking activities, vehicle registration, health care... causing particularly serious consequences; there is collusion and connection between degenerate officials and businesses and organizations for personal gain, causing resentment among officials, party members and the people.

A number of cadres, civil servants, and public employees, especially leaders and managers, show signs of working half-heartedly, avoiding, and being afraid of making mistakes, affecting socio-economic development and the work of people and businesses.

Legal regulations in a number of areas still have loopholes and shortcomings, and are slow to be amended and supplemented, especially in the fields of land, auctions, bidding, valuation, securities, corporate bonds, etc.

The work of self-inspection and detection of corruption and negativity within the organization has not yet seen many changes. Few cases have been discovered through self-inspection. Corruption and negativity cases still occur within agencies with the function of preventing and combating corruption and negativity, causing negative public opinion.

The work of asset appraisal, valuation, information and document provision in a number of cases and incidents is still slow and of limited quality; asset recovery, although higher than in the previous period, still has a large value of assets to be recovered.

During the working day, National Assembly deputies had many discussions. The Chief Justice of the Supreme People's Court, the Chief Prosecutor of the Supreme People's Procuracy, the Minister of Public Security, the Minister of Justice, and the Government Inspector General spoke to explain and clarify a number of issues raised by National Assembly deputies.
