Speaking at the conference, comrade Pham Minh Chinh emphasized that this is the first time we have designed a process to control power, designed regulations, sanctions, and manifestations for us to control and handle violations. Regulation 205 is part of the overall regulations that the Politburo has issued since the beginning of the term.

The practice of buying and selling positions and power has been prevented and gradually pushed back fundamentally. This is a difficult task but must be prevented at all levels, especially in the context of preparing for Party Congresses at all levels leading up to the 13th National Party Congress. On that basis, we must clean up the ranks, tighten discipline and order, create an environment that encourages innovation and creativity, and protect those who dare to think and dare to do.

"In parallel with tightening discipline, we do not let unqualified officials into Party committees at all levels, but we do not let talented and virtuous people escape. Regulation 205 is a specific regulation, but it is part of the overall resolutions and regulations of the Party, contributing to fighting against the abuse of power and positions, tightening discipline in the Party and especially ensuring the standards and conditions of those participating in Party committees at all levels" - Comrade Pham Minh Chinh emphasized.

The Head of the Central Organizing Committee requested that Party committees at all levels thoroughly grasp and seriously and effectively implement Regulation 205 to each cadre and Party member; Party committees at all levels need to actively deploy, be creative, and organize implementation in accordance with their localities; at the same time, strengthen inspection and supervision work for effective implementation.

In particular, promoting the exemplary role of cadres and party members, especially leaders, to prevent the situation of seeking positions and power, control power, avoid mistakes, overcome weaknesses in personnel work, contribute to consolidating and improving the capacity and fighting strength of the Party, continue to comprehensively promote the innovation process, and build a country that develops rapidly and sustainably.
