Immediately after that, the National Assembly deputies entered into group discussion on the above contents.

Commenting on the content of the National Assembly's supervision program in 2018, delegate Ho Duc Phoc - State Auditor General suggested that the National Assembly should focus more on visual supervision of public investment projects, ODA and BOT projects; urgent and prominent issues will benefit the people more. Regarding supervision of mineral resources issues, it is necessary to focus on specific areas such as gravel, sand, stone and forest exploitation. The second issue, according to delegate Ho Duc Phoc, is the need to supervise the commercial banking system, especially weak banks...

Delegate Nguyen Huu Cau - Director of Nghe An Provincial Police Department proposed that in the 2018 law-making program, there should be adjustments and amendments to the People's Public Security Law. Because the current People's Public Security Law has two shortcomings, first, the law stipulates that there must be deputy captain and captain positions in the planning. However, in reality, a student graduating from the Security and Police Academy must wait at least 3 years to become a deputy captain and if he strives really hard, he can only become a captain after 5 years, not to mention deputy head of department or head of department. Therefore, it is very difficult to rejuvenate the staff of the People's Public Security.

"The National Assembly is requested to study and amend, otherwise it will be difficult for the People's Public Security Force to rejuvenate its staff to include them in the position planning and create a strategic source of cadres," said delegate Nguyen Huu Cau.

The second problem, according to delegate Nguyen Huu Cau, is the inadequacy of policies related to ranks, which causes many people to be distracted. For example, people compare a professional department in the Ministry that can receive the rank of lieutenant general with only a few hundred soldiers. Meanwhile, the directors of local military forces with more than 5,000 soldiers still receive the rank of colonel.

“These are issues that we believe need to be amended and we should amend them soon so that the people's police force in the near future will have better working conditions and motivation. “In reality, there are comrades born in 1977 who are now Chairmen of the Provincial People's Committee while the police force born in 1977 can only be district chief at most,” delegate Nguyen Huu Cau analyzed.

Regarding the planned National Assembly Supervision program, delegate Nguyen Huu Cau supported the fourth topic on implementing legal policies and supporting the development of ethnic minority and mountainous areas. Because "these are disadvantaged groups, their economic life is very difficult while in reality this policy still has many shortcomings".

Delegate Nguyen Huu Cau also suggested adding a topic on monitoring projects that have lost state capital to the 2018 monitoring program. “In addition to the 12 major projects that we have discovered, how many other projects have lost money like that? If we do well, the problem of public debt and bad debt will decrease immediately. This is also an issue that voters are very interested in,” Delegate Nguyen Huu Cau explained.

Also related to the 2018 National Assembly supervision program, delegate Tran Van Mao - Deputy Head of the National Assembly delegation of Nghe An province said: through the recent supervision sessions, it is necessary to learn from some issues when implementing the National Assembly's supervision program, which is to closely follow the process, prepare the content in advance, ensure reasonable time, collect correct and sufficient information and related data; ensure the steps and procedures... only then can the quality of National Assembly supervision be improved.

Regarding the monitoring topics, according to delegate Tran Van Mao, it is necessary to carry out two monitoring topics to ensure the macro level and the urgent, prominent issues at the national level that voters are interested in. It could be one of the two topics in the economic field, which is the implementation of legal policies on the equitization of state-owned enterprises or the policy on the management of government bonds and foreign loans and the topic on the implementation of legal policies and support for the development of ethnic minority and mountainous areas, as commented by delegate Nguyen Huu Cau.

According to delegate Tran Van Mao, this is a policy that we have implemented well in recent years, but there are still many issues that need to be overcome, monitored, supervised and implemented well...

In addition, at the group discussion session, delegates also contributed comments on a number of contents such as the existing problems and limitations in implementing the process and regulations for promulgating legal documents, the debt status of law projects, etc.
