National Assembly delegates of An Giang province discuss draft laws

On the afternoon of November 3, continuing the 10th Session of the 15th National Assembly, the National Assembly Delegation of An Giang province participated in the discussion in Group 14 (with the National Assembly Delegations of Quang Ninh and Ha Tinh provinces) on the draft Law amending and supplementing a number of articles of the Law on Statistics; the draft Law amending and supplementing a number of articles of the Law on Prices; and the draft Law on E-commerce.

Regarding the draft Law on E-commerce, delegate Nguyen Phuong Tuan, Vice Chairman of the National Assembly's Committee on Science , Technology and Environment, and the National Assembly Delegation of An Giang province, requested the drafting agency to review and compare the provisions of the draft law with the Law on Electronic Transactions, Law on Credit Institutions, Law on the State Bank of Vietnam, Law on Consumer Rights Protection, Law on Data, etc. and the draft laws being submitted to the National Assembly for consideration and approval (Law on Cyber ​​Security, Law on Digital Transformation).

Delegate Nguyen Phuong Tuan contributed comments.

Regarding Article 3 (Interpretation of terms) of the draft Law on E-commerce, delegate Nguyen Phuong Tuan proposed adding the concept of "e-commerce platform owner" to distinguish it from "e-commerce platform manager", avoiding confusion in understanding and implementing the law later, ensuring continuity with relevant decrees issued by the Government .

It is recommended to consider the concept of “foreign seller” (Article 17) because it is almost similar to Article 18 (Foreign organizations and individuals are organizations and individuals established and registered for business under the provisions of foreign law or recognized by foreign law). At the same time, the term “foreign buyer” is not explained, it is recommended to consider adding it.

Article 6 stipulates prohibited acts, including Clause 3: "Forcing or preventing users of e-commerce platforms owned by oneself to register to use other digital platforms as a mandatory condition for using the service".

Therefore, the delegate proposed to study and clarify whether this provision applies to “e-commerce platform owners” or “e-commerce platform owners”. In case this provision remains unchanged, it is recommended to supplement the concept and regulations related to “e-commerce platform owners”.

Delegate Nguyen Danh Tu spoke.

Previously, in the discussion session on the morning of November 3, delegate Nguyen Danh Tu, member of the National Assembly's Committee on Law and Justice, National Assembly Delegation of An Giang province, contributed to the draft Law amending and supplementing a number of articles of the Law on Insurance Business.

In reality, many insurance contracts are very long, with very small letters, and use many legal and technical terms. Although according to the regulations, both parties signing the contract are equal, there is always inequality when one party is a very large company with many years of experience, and the other party is a buyer who does not have much knowledge in the field of insurance and law.

Insurance brokers receive commissions from insurance companies, so they often advise on the advantages of insurance products and services, and provide general information about the conditions that exclude the insurance company's liability and the conditions that are unfavorable to the buyer, which will affect the buyer's rights later. Delegates suggested that it is necessary to add provisions that more strictly bind the responsibilities of insurance service providers and brokers...
