The Ministry of Justice has just announced the draft Regulations on Appointment, Resignation, Resignation, Dismissal, Transfer, Secondment, and Rotation of Civil Servants and Public Employees of the Ministry of Justice to solicit public comments.
According to the draft, the age for first-time leadership appointment is not more than 55 years old for men and not more than 50 years old for women. In special cases, when it is really necessary and the unit does not have another suitable personnel plan, it must ensure that the working age is at least 2/3 of the term (a full 40 months) but must report to the Party Executive Committee and the Minister for approval.
Civil servants and public employees who have ceased to hold leadership or management positions after a period of work, if considered for appointment to leadership or management positions, the age requirement shall be the same as the age requirement for first appointment.
Age is calculated according to the Birth Certificate (original or certified copy); if there is no Birth Certificate, then according to the original CV declared when being recruited into the Party, State, organization, or armed forces (certified by the competent authority).
For party members, in case the age recorded in the Cadre Profile or other relevant documents attached to the Cadre Profile does not match the original Party Member Profile, the age will be calculated according to the Party Member Profile (original profile) when admitted to the Party.
The appointed person must not be serving disciplinary action from reprimand or above; not be under disciplinary review, investigation, prosecution or trial.
A person disciplined with a reprimand or higher level shall not be appointed to a higher position for at least 1 year from the date of the disciplinary decision. A person disciplined with dismissal from office shall not be appointed to an equivalent or higher position for at least 1 year from the date of the disciplinary decision.
In the proposal, the appointment proposal must clearly state whether the personnel are in the appointment position plan or not; if not, the reason must be clearly explained.
The term of office for each appointment is 5 years, calculated from the effective date of the appointment decision. In case of change of leadership or management title due to change of organization name but no change in function or task, the re-appointment date is calculated from the effective date of the appointment decision according to the old position.
For the President of Hanoi Law University, Director of the Judicial Academy, and Presidents of intermediate law schools under the Ministry of Justice, they are appointed and reappointed for a term of office, each term is 5 years and not more than two consecutive terms.
