National Assembly discusses proposed 2026 Monitoring Program

Based on the characteristics and special situation of 2026, the Standing Committee of the National Assembly recommends that the National Assembly allow not to propose thematic supervision content in the National Assembly's 2026 Supervision Program.

Accordingly, the Standing Committee of the National Assembly plans to include the following contents of the National Assembly's Supervision Program in 2026: At the first session, the 16th National Assembly will consider 8 reports of the Government, 1 report of the Standing Committee of the National Assembly and other reports of relevant agencies as prescribed by law.

At the 2nd regular session, the 16th National Assembly reviewed 22 reports of the Government, 3 reports of the National Assembly Standing Committee and other reports of relevant agencies as prescribed by law; and simultaneously conducted 1 question-and-answer session.

The remaining months of 2025 and 2026 are of special importance in successfully implementing the Resolutions of the 13th National Congress and the 14th National Congress of the Party.

In the context of the change in the organizational structure of the National Assembly, 2 new National Assembly Committees were established; at the same time, the streamlining of the political system, the merger of administrative units, the organization of 2-level local governments, the number of National Assembly delegations of provinces and cities from 63 is expected to be reduced to 34 delegations, but the scale of the delegations will be larger, the number of full-time National Assembly deputies will also increase, so besides the difficulties, there will also be many favorable conditions to perform the supervisory function better and more effectively.

Therefore, the Standing Committee of the National Assembly proposed that supervision work should continue to be focused on, experience should be drawn, and solutions should be provided to improve and innovate to suit the new practical situation, in which it is necessary to focus on promoting the spirit of initiative in supervision activities, promoting the application of information technology, proactively supervising right from the implementation of laws, ordinances, and resolutions of the National Assembly and the Standing Committee of the National Assembly, closely following the practical situation of law enforcement, ensuring that supervision activities are focused and key, avoiding overlap, improving effectiveness and efficiency, contributing to perfecting policies and laws, improving the effectiveness and efficiency of State management.

Regarding the assessment of the results of the implementation of the 2024 Supervision Program and the implementation situation in the first months of 2025, it shows that the National Assembly, the National Assembly Standing Committee, the National Assembly agencies, the National Assembly Delegations and National Assembly Deputies have comprehensively and synchronously organized and implemented supervision activities with many improvements and innovations, closely following major issues emerging in the country's socio-economic life, while proactively and flexibly adjusting to suit the practical situation and have achieved important results, such as:

Institutional building and improvement work continues to receive attention, contributing to removing "bottlenecks" in the implementation of legal regulations on supervision activities.

The question and answer sessions were lively, democratic, practical, topical, closely following real life, “correct” and “on point” with the issues that voters, the people of the whole country and the National Assembly deputies were interested in. At the end of the question and answer sessions, the National Assembly and the National Assembly Standing Committee issued 4 resolutions, which set out specific requirements, solutions and deadlines for agencies to implement, and at the same time served as a basis for “re-supervision” of the implementation.

Thematic supervision activities continued to be comprehensively implemented, with many innovations and flexibility in organization and implementation, ensuring efficiency and quality; for the first time in the term of the 15th National Assembly, the National Assembly Standing Committee conducted activities to review the implementation of the resolutions of the National Assembly Standing Committee on thematic supervision and questioning with the spirit of maximizing the results achieved in the "re-supervision" activities of the National Assembly at the 6th Session and demonstrating the responsibility of the National Assembly Standing Committee in supervising to the end the implementation of the requests and recommendations of the National Assembly and the National Assembly Standing Committee.

The review of reports by agencies is carried out in a substantive, responsible and effective manner, focusing on major and important issues, with emphasis on proposing specific, appropriate and feasible solutions to address existing problems and limitations.

The activities of supervising legal documents continue to receive attention and direction from the National Assembly Standing Committee, and are carried out regularly, seriously, and responsibly by National Assembly agencies, achieving many results, each year better than the previous year.

Activities of supervising the settlement of complaints, denunciations, and voters' recommendations and supervising and guiding the activities of the People's Council have been focused on, implemented, and increasingly put into practice.

The Nationalities Council, the National Assembly Committees, the National Assembly Delegations and the National Assembly Deputies have proactively improved, innovated and actively implemented their supervisory activities to effectively carry out the assigned requirements and tasks. In addition, for the first time, the policy of organizing the National Assembly Forum on supervisory activities has shown the spirit of constant innovation in the activities of the National Assembly.

Also on the morning of June 13, the National Assembly discussed in the hall the draft Resolution of the National Assembly on piloting a number of special mechanisms and policies for the development of Hai Phong city.
