At the National Assembly plenary discussion in Hanoi on the draft Law amending and supplementing a number of articles of the Law on Investment, deputy Duong Khac Mai of Lam Dong delegation stressed the need to clearly define the conditions for enjoying investment incentives and strictly tie them to implementation results.
“I propose establishing clear legal standards for incentives. These benefits should be tied directly to actual investment spending, technology sharing, training local workers, and adding local value. We support only verified, reasonable costs, identified evaluation authorities and timing. Additionally, the framework should allow us to revoke or reclaim incentives if violations occur, while including a mechanism to resolve uncontrollable events,” Mai added.
Minister of Finance Ngo Van Tuan said, “The draft Law clearly defines incentives to attract investment into priority sectors and industries, especially innovation, science and technology, and digital transformation, while focusing on the quality of investment attraction linked to domestic production.”
“We also set criteria requiring the participation of Vietnamese enterprises in the value chains of foreign-invested companies. The bill has also emphasized on output-based support, which must be inspected, supervised, and quantified,” Tuan added.
Also Monday morning, the deputies gave opinions on the draft revised Law on Donation, Removal, and Transplantation of Human Tissues and Organs and Donation and Removal of Cadavers.
Lawmakers noted that the government responded to public and parliamentary feedback by banning minors from registering as organ donors and outlawing the removal of non-regenerative tissues from living individuals under 18.
Additionally, the revision tightens the rules for intra-family donations of regenerative tissue. Minors can now only donate to full siblings, provided no eligible adult donor is available and strict health, counseling, and consent requirements are fully met.
