Basically, the provisions of the Draft Law on Planning are constitutional and in line with the Party and State's guidelines. However, there are still some provisions that need to be further studied, revised and perfected. Accordingly, the delegates said that the law should add more content related to agricultural production planning, especially at the provincial level; specifically and accurately state the time for implementing the vision of the provincial planning.

Many delegates also expressed concerns and had specific opinions so that the law could be implemented more quickly, avoiding the phenomenon of laws waiting for circulars and decrees; at the same time, there should be unification of related provisions for other laws to avoid overlap. In addition, it is also necessary to add environmental and national defense and security factors to the law.

Also at the conference, representatives of departments, branches and units also suggested adjusting some terms in the draft Law on Planning such as "territory", "national sector planning", etc. to be more concise and strict.

Agricultural representatives spoke at the conference.
