He made the request while addressing theGovernment’s law-building session which looked into the collectionof the public feedback on the draft revised Land Law and the NA StandingCommittee’s opinions about the draft revised Law on Housing.
As of April 8, there were more than12 million opinions on the draft revised Land Law, mostly on compensation, assistancefor resettlement, land handover, land leasing, changes of land use purposes, andland planning, according to the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment.
Government members scrutinised somemajor issues of public concern and debatable ones, including cases of land revocationfor socio-economic development, compensation and resettlement assistance inrevocation cases, land handover and leasing, and land prices.
Regarding the NA Standing Committee’scomments on the draft revised Housing Law, they discussed the regulations onthe apartment ownership duration, the right to use land with housing owned byforeigners, land use for commercial housing development, the social housingpolicy, and housing for members of armed forces.
PM Chinh said the draft revised LandLaw includes many difficult, complex, and sensitive contents that havewidespread influence, so it is necessary to be extremely prudent and absorb themost of people’s opinions to ensure the draft matches the reality and does notoverlap or contrast with specialised laws.
Adjustments to the draft mustmaximise land resources to serve development; guarantee harmonious interests ofthe State, people, and enterprises; increase power decentralisation andresource allocation; clearly regulate the scope of power of each level ofauthorities and each sector; boost examination, supervision, and control ofpower; and minimise administrative procedures to facilitate people and enterprises’access to land, he demanded.
Meanwhile, he asked officials toanalyse both the strong and weak points of draft amendments to the Housing Law andclarify the Government’s viewpoint on the chosen plan.
The Government leader toldrelevant ministries and sectors to continue taking in comments and perfect thedrafts./.
