(Baonghean.vn) - Head of the Provincial National Assembly Delegation Nguyen Dac Vinh emphasized the need for better coordination in voter contact activities, limiting contact with representative voters, instead "opening the door" for people to come to elected agencies and elected representatives, avoiding the situation where some establishments are "afraid" of what people will say so they limit the number of people participating in voter contact.

On the morning of March 1, the Provincial National Assembly delegation, the Provincial People's Council Standing Committee and the Provincial Fatherland Front Standing Committee held a conference to evaluate the coordination regulations in 2018 and determine coordination contents in 2019.

Create highlights in coordination

Speaking at the conference, Chairman of the Provincial People's Council Nguyen Xuan Son said that in 2018, Nghe An had comprehensive development and many progressive results, creating an important foundation for 2019.

Contributing to the overall achievements of the province, the three agencies of the National Assembly Delegation, the Provincial People's Council and the Provincial Fatherland Front Committee, based on their functions and tasks, have had effective coordination.

The Chairman of the Provincial People's Council also affirmed that the organization of the conference, based on the assessment of results and limitations, aims to create more regular, close and effective coordination in 2019; especially, it is necessary to create highlights in coordination, especially in making correct decisions and properly resolving voters' recommendations.

"Agencies need to coordinate to create strength, accept conflicts to pursue and urge the settlement of voters' petitions, protect people's rights as well as resolve pressing issues and problems," the Chairman of the Provincial People's Council emphasized.

From the opinion of comrade Nguyen Xuan Son, at the meeting, besides clarifying the outstanding results in implementing the coordination regulations between the three agencies in 2018, representatives of the agencies also contributed many opinions to promote more effective coordination in 2019.

Most importantly, the three agencies need to coordinate and innovate voter contact activities; focusing on contacting each region and each target group to gain the responsibility and intelligence of all classes of people to participate in the socio-economic decisions of the country and the province, not just to express personal interests.

To do this, the role of the provincial Fatherland Front is to train and foster the grassroots Fatherland Front in skills, organizational methods, including the capacity to conduct meetings with voters. It is also to innovate coordination in organizing specialized topics to monitor the implementation of policies issued by the Central and the province; thereby making accurate recommendations on issues that need to be overcome, avoiding formalities or general recommendations through supervision.

Some opinions also said that, through voter contact activities and supervision and criticism, all three agencies need to coordinate in selecting "hot" and urgent issues that voters are interested in to organize in-depth supervision; or recommendations after supervision are not received and resolved thoroughly and seriously by the authorities to urge and pursue to the end, in order to create weight and enhance the role of the agencies.

Avoid being "afraid" of people speaking at voter contact forums

Speaking at the conference, besides highly appreciating the effectiveness of coordination between the three agencies in recent times, Provincial Party Secretary Nguyen Dac Vinh affirmed: The National Assembly Delegation and the Provincial People's Council are elected bodies, and the Provincial Fatherland Front Committee is a representative body for all classes of people with similar functions and tasks, participating in contributing with the National Assembly to formulate policies at the Central level and directly formulating policies for the province, while caring for and protecting the legitimate rights and interests of the people.

For planning and policies to have a positive impact and influence on the development of the country and localities, a good preparation process is required. In addition to drafting, reviewing by competent agencies and consulting with Party committees, which has been done for a long time, Head of the National Assembly Delegation Nguyen Dac Vinh suggested that the three agencies need to research and consider mechanisms and forms to promote the responsibility and intelligence of intellectuals, experts and people of all walks of life in this process.

Along with that, there needs to be effective monitoring mechanisms and measures to ensure that the plans and policies issued are effectively implemented in practice. Accordingly, they are sent to the monitored agencies and units to absorb and overcome the shortcomings, limitations and inadequacies discovered through monitoring.

In addition to the two key contents mentioned above, the Head of the Provincial National Assembly Delegation also emphasized the need for better coordination in voter contact activities, limiting contact with representative voters, instead "opening the door" for people to come to elected agencies and elected representatives, avoiding the situation where some establishments are "afraid" of what the people say so they limit the number of people participating in voter contact.

To encourage the courage of grassroots cadres, agencies must also clearly demonstrate a straightforward and responsible attitude, avoid favoritism, and "peace is precious"; thereby urging all levels, sectors, and each cadre and civil servant to consider implementing the recommendations of voters and people, as well as the shortcomings, conflicts, and limitations in life discovered through supervision.

"When we are resolute and closely follow up, we will be able to solve many problems raised by voters, contributing to reducing people's frustration," the Head of the Provincial National Assembly Delegation emphasized.
