On the morning of February 16, at the Government headquarters,Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinhchaired the Government's meeting on law in February 2022. Also attending the meeting were Deputy Prime Ministers: Pham Binh Minh, Le Minh Khai, Le Van Thanh, Vu Duc Dam; Ministers; Heads of ministerial-level agencies and government agencies.

Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh stated that at this meeting, the Government will continue to discuss the completion of draft laws. The Resolution of the 13th National Party Congress clearly identifies investment guarantees for the construction of three worthy strategic breakthroughs, including institutional breakthroughs.

"Therefore, we continuously organize meetings, exchanges, and seminars to consult with experts, scientists, and managers to build a legal system, including the authority of all levels. Whatever is under the authority of the Politburo and the National Assembly, we must actively prepare and submit according to regulations and procedures," the Prime Minister emphasized.

The Prime Minister requested that Ministers and heads of sectors must directly lead and direct the building of institutions, including laws related to their sectors and fields, and the development of Decrees and Circulars. The Minister of Justice shall continue to perfect the procedures and regulations on order, as well as, on behalf of the Government, urge and inspect ministries and sectors to ensure the right time and quality; supplement and perfect regimes and policies related to human resources and other facilities, thereby creating the best conditions for officials to do this work, worthy of strategic breakthroughs.

The Prime Minister pointed out that, through practice, many bottlenecks need to be removed, such as one law amending many laws, preparing a number of laws related to land, resources, minerals, management of important and essential goods, related to major balances of the economy, macroeconomic stability... Through the practice of each ministry, branch, agency, and unit, after reviewing, if any problems need to be fixed, they must be fixed immediately, especially issues related to the socio-economic recovery and development program with an additional amount of about 350 trillion VND in 2 years. If there are any institutional bottlenecks needed to free up resources and create efficiency, through inspection and review, ministries and branches need to focus on doing them in a focused and key way.

The Prime Minister suggested that ministries and branches that have already focused should focus more, that they have promoted should promote more, that they have been determined should be more determined, and that they should strengthen inspection, supervision, and urging so that institutions can come into life. The Prime Minister suggested focusing on research, discussion, and giving opinions, being concise, straight to the point, and having quality, and encouraging counter-arguments. For each draft law, after the Government has given its opinion, if there are still difficult, complicated, or sensitive issues, the Ministers and heads of branches should continue to organize workshops to consult with experts and scientists, especially to organize good communication work. The Prime Minister also suggested that media agencies coordinate well with ministries and branches to do this work well. Experience has shown that if problems are done correctly and accurately but communication is not good, it is very easy to affect the common goal.

At the meeting, delegates discussed and gave opinions on the Draft Law on Inspection (amended); Draft Law on Petroleum (amended); Law on Civil Defense; Law on Management and Protection of National Defense Works and Military Zones; Law on Cooperatives (amended); Law on Bidding (amended); Draft Law on Implementing Democracy at the Grassroots Level./.
