Voters hailed operational reforms of the legislativebody, including those in law building during which the legal and legitimaterights of people have been put at the centre, according to the legislator.
Binh noted that the legislature’s supervision andquestion-answer activities have also been revamped, adding some issues ofpublic concern have been included in Q&A sessions like how to improve thequality of the legal system and corruption prevention and fight in law building, and toremove obstacles to agricultural exports.
The settlement of petitions has contributed tospurring socio-economic development, ensuring social order and safety, andraising people’s living standards, he continued.
Binh also pointed to limitations, notably legal and legitimaterights of people affected due to slowness of ministries and agencies in buildingand submitting regulations, as well as the handling of a number of petitions.
