Mr. Man urged deputies to focus on policy quality, particularly provisions that have significant implications for citizens and businesses and new mechanisms that lack precedent or have yet to be fully tested.
“Legislation must reflect the quality of new legislative thinking. Matters relating to human rights, citizens’ rights, business conditions, resource allocation, the organization of state power, and the responsibilities of state agencies must be clearly stipulated in the law itself,” he said.
The guiding principle is that laws should be shorter yet more comprehensive, contain fewer provisions but clearer responsibilities, and be more stable while remaining adaptable to practical realities, the NA President said. “Laws must keep pace with reality, but they should not be amended constantly to keep up with every change.”
Mr. Man said the true value of a law lies in its effective implementation. Laws should protect the legitimate rights and interests of the people, remove bottlenecks, unlock resources, and create momentum for development.
During the two-day conference, deputies will discuss 17 draft laws expected to be submitted to the upcoming National Assembly session. The bills cover economics and finance, science and technology, environmental protection, governance and justice, and culture and social affairs.
