Regarding the task of promptly and strictly adjudicating acts of evasion of social insurance and unemployment insurance as stated in Resolution No. 100/2023/QH15, the Courts have focused on protecting the rights of employees affected by enterprises evading social insurance payments; creating conditions for employees to present their claims for violated rights, ensuring fairness and democracy. The Courts have resolved 92.31% of cases and 82.65% of defendants related to evasion of social insurance payments and other acts of fraud and profiteering.

Chief Justice of the Supreme People's Court Nguyen Van Quang also stated that since most of the cases related to Covid-19 prevention and control have been handled and concluded by the authorities, it is proposed to stop preparing separate reports on this content.

It is recommended to allow the integration of reporting contents on the implementation of targets and requirements in many current Resolutions of the National Assembly related to the work of the Court into the Annual Work Report to avoid duplication and ensure systematicity in the work of synthesizing and monitoring implementation results.

The Supreme People's Procuracy issued a Program on practicing thrift and combating waste for the 2023-2025 period; streamlined the organizational structure; arranged and handled headquarters and assets after the merger; strengthened inspection and examination; accelerated the investigation, prosecution and trial of cases.

From the process of implementing the National Assembly's supervision resolutions, the Chief Prosecutor of the People's Procuracy said that some cases of child sexual abuse lack direct evidence; the victims are young and suffer psychological trauma, making it difficult to investigate. Collecting documents on fraud and evasion of insurance payments is still difficult due to the lack of cooperation of some businesses; workers are afraid of affecting their jobs, so they are not bold enough to report. The appraisal and valuation of some cases and incidents is still prolonged, leading to some cases having to return files for further investigation or temporarily suspending them.
