National Assembly to further uphold its role and position in creating a legal
framework for the country’s activities.
In
his keynote speech at the opening of the 15th NA’s first session in
Hanoi on July 20, Trong asked the legislature to speed up the issuance and
improve the quality of legal documents, soon build a legal system to meet
demand in reality, and build and supplement laws in key areas that make breakthroughs in
socio-economic development.
The
NA needs to continue renewing and further improving operation quality and efficiency to meet
the country’s requirements and political tasks in the new period, he said, adding that to such end, it is
necessary to fully understand the role, position and responsibility of the
legislature in the nation’s political system led by the Communist Party of
Vietnam (CPV), as well as promptly institutionalise the Party’s policies and guidelines to meet demand in reality and public expectations.
The
legislature also needs to step up external activities, active and proactive
global integration, contributing to performing the Party and State’s foreign policy of multilateralisation and diversification of relations.
The
Party chief stressed that achievements made by the NA over the past 75
years are the result of the sound leadership of the CPV - a decisive factor
for the legislature to fulfill tasks entrusted by the people.

In
the immediate future, he called for institutionalising and concretising important
policies affirmed at the 13th National Party Congress, ensuring the quality
of the 15th NA’s activities to meet the requirements and tasks of the revolution and the people's expectations in the new
period.
He
expressed his belief that under the CPV’s leadership and with efforts and
determination of NA deputies, close collaboration among units in the political
system, support and supervision of the public, and cooperation and assistance of international
friends, the Vietnamese legislature will reap important outcomes, thus deserving the highest
representative organ of the people and the
highest organ of State power of the country./.
