Delivering a speech at the ceremony, Party Central Committee Secretary and Chairman of the Central Inspection Commission Tran Cam Tu reviewed the 70th anniversary of the Party Inspection Sector's tradition.

Mr. Tran Cam Tu emphasized: In recent years, implementing the Resolution of the 12th National Party Congress and the Resolution of the 4th Central Committee of the 11th and 12th terms on Party building and rectification, the Central Inspection Committee and Inspection Committees at all levels have made many innovations and made great efforts to complete a large amount of work; the quality and effectiveness of inspection and supervision work have been gradually improved, including many difficult, complicated and serious cases that have been reviewed, violations clearly concluded and promptly handled, such as the cases at the Oil and Gas Group, the Chemical Group, BIDV Bank, Da Nang City, the General Department of Logistics and Technology (Ministry of Public Security), the Air Defense - Air Force Service, the Southwest Steering Committee, the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the Ministry of Information and Communications, the violations at the Formosa project, the AVG case, the Trinh Xuan Thanh case...

Through inspection, the Central Inspection Commission and Inspection Commissions at all levels have resolutely handled and proposed that the Central Executive Committee, the Politburo, the Secretariat and Party committees at all levels strictly handle many violating Party organizations and Party members, including comrades holding high positions in the Party and State, including retired cadres and senior officers in the armed forces, with the spirit of strictness from top to bottom, no forbidden areas, no exceptions, firmly maintaining Party discipline.

“The above results have created an important mark in the 70-year journey of building and growing the Inspection Sector, contributing to effectively fighting and preventing degradation in political ideology, ethics, lifestyle, and manifestations of "self-evolution" and "self-transformation" within the sector. Through inspection and supervision work, Party committees and organizations at all levels have helped Party committees and organizations to more effectively lead and direct Party building work and carry out political tasks of localities and units, maintaining the principles of democratic centralism and internal solidarity"-Mr. Tran Cam Tu said.

Speaking at the ceremony, on behalf of the Central Executive Committee, the Politburo, the Secretariat, and Standing Secretary of the Secretariat Tran Quoc Vuong acknowledged, highly appreciated and warmly commended the achievements that the Party's Inspection sector has made over the past 70 years.

Mr. Tran Quoc Vuong said: Inspection and supervision work must be conducted regularly, comprehensively, publicly, democratically, cautiously and strictly, in which prevention and construction are the main priorities. Through inspection and supervision, we can promptly remind, warn, rectify and prevent violations of the Party's guidelines and policies, the State's policies and laws, and the lack of exemplary behavior of Party organizations and Party members; at the same time, we must resolutely handle organizations and individuals who deliberately violate.

“Party committees at all levels, especially leaders, on the one hand, organize the implementation of inspection, supervision, and Party discipline enforcement work according to their functions and tasks; on the other hand, strengthen leadership, direction, and guidance for lower-level Party committees and organizations in implementing inspection work; must immediately overcome the situation of “hot above, cold below” in inspection work. Pay attention to grasping the situation of Party organizations and Party members, especially leaders, managers, and heads at all levels, sectors, localities, and units to promptly detect, prevent, and overcome shortcomings and defects, especially signs of violations when they are still in their infancy, so that violations do not become more serious.”- Mr. Tran Quoc Vuong emphasized.

Mr. Tran Quoc Vuong also suggested focusing on building a team of inspectors to meet the requirements of the tasks in the new situation. Inspectors must always maintain their mettle, have the courage to fight, be upright, and fight impartially against violations and negativity in the Party; must grasp and correctly implement the principles, mechanisms, policies and regulations of the Party and the State, and perform their duties with pure motives; maintain their qualities, ethics, enthusiasm, determination and high responsibility in their profession; and must truly be exemplary in their daily lives.

At the ceremony, on behalf of the Party and State leaders, Acting President Dang Thi Ngoc Thinh awarded the First Class Labor Medal to the Central Inspection Commission for its outstanding achievements in contributing to building socialism and defending the Fatherland; The Central Inspection Commission awarded 20 Emulation Flags and Certificates of Merit to 29 collectives with outstanding achievements in the emulation movement to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the Party Inspection Sector's tradition day and 3 collectives with outstanding achievements in the management and protection of the Party Inspection Sector's Monument House./.
