Innovation in the management of the 12th session

In December 2019, the focus of the Standing Committee and the Committees and Office of the Provincial People's Council was on the successful conclusion of the year-end Provincial People's Council meeting - the 12th session. At this meeting, the Provincial People's Council passed 22 resolutions on socio-economic, national defense and security.

Besides affirming the innovation in the management of the session and the spirit of the working sessions at the session being lively, democratic and responsible, some delegates also frankly pointed out some limitations that need to be learned from the session.

It is noteworthy that the quality of preparation of some draft resolutions before submitting them to the discussion session is not of good quality.

And in the group discussion session, the provincial People's Council delegates and relevant departments and branches did not spend adequate time discussing the draft resolutions.

The preparation of reports and draft submissions and resolutions submitted to the meeting of the Provincial People's Committee and departments and branches for review by the Standing Committee and the Provincial People's Council Committees has not ensured the time limit as prescribed by law.

There is still a situation where some provincial People's Council delegates have not invested in researching the contents presented at the meeting in order to participate with quality.

Attention was paid to the reception, classification and forwarding of petitions sent by citizens. During the month, the Provincial People's Council received 29 petitions, complaints, denunciations, recommendations and reflections from voters and people, focusing on the fields of land, housing, policies and internal affairs.

It is noteworthy that the petition of some households in the residential area adjacent to Vinaconex 9.1 Joint Stock Company reflected that the households had purchased project land and fully complied with financial obligations and procedures but had not been granted land use right certificates.

Or the petition of some households in Hung Loc commune (Vinh city) reflects that the people had agreed to choose the name of the hamlet after merging the two hamlets Duc Vinh and Duc Thinh into Vinh Thinh hamlet, but then took the name Duc Thinh which is not appropriate...

Urgently deploy tasks after the meeting

Concluding the meeting, Comrade Nguyen Xuan Son - Standing Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Chairman of the Provincial People's Council requested the Committees and Office of the Provincial People's Council to urgently deploy tasks after the session such as announcing the conclusion of the Standing Committee of the Provincial People's Council on the question and answer session; at the same time, editing and completing the draft resolutions passed at the recent 12th session for promulgation, as a basis for all levels and sectors to implement.

On the other hand, based on the assessment of the organization of the 12th session, it is recommended that the Provincial People's Committee should learn from experience in preparing the content for the session to ensure better time and quality.

For the Standing Committee and Committees, the Office of the Provincial People's Council continues to monitor and seriously evaluate the quality of activities of the Provincial People's Council delegates, including the structure of the Provincial People's Council delegates, on that basis, prepare to conduct the election of National Assembly and People's Council delegates at all levels for the 2021-2026 term in early 2021.

Regarding the work of receiving and resolving citizens' complaints and denunciations, the Chairman of the Provincial People's Council said that the Provincial People's Council does not have the function of resolving them, but through receiving, classifying and forwarding complaints to relevant levels and sectors, the Committees and Office of the Provincial People's Council need to closely monitor the resolution of the sectors, especially issues that are slow to be resolved or have not been resolved, in order to respond to the Standing Committee of the Provincial People's Council for continued supervision.

The Chairman of the Provincial People's Council also asked the Provincial People's Committee to pay more attention and focus on handling people's petitions, especially petitions related to people's legitimate rights, including paying attention to resolving people's rights in urban projects and apartment buildings.
