Remarkable records set during a historic parliamentary session.

(Dan Tri Newspaper) - The final session of the 15th National Assembly was marked by many records. It was the longest session, had the fastest working time, the largest workload, and passed the largest number of laws.

The 10th session of the 15th National Assembly concluded after 40 consecutive working days, with a massive workload. In a special context with many challenges, the National Assembly proactively and innovatively responded to the demands arising from reality and left many significant marks on parliamentary activities.

Completing the "institutional architecture" for the new phase.

At its final session, the National Assembly reviewed, discussed, and voted to pass 51 laws and 39 resolutions, including 8 normative legal resolutions.

"This is a very large volume of legislation, accounting for nearly 30% of the total number of laws and normative resolutions issued during the entire term," according to National Assembly Chairman Tran Thanh Man .

Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Son (a full-time member of the Committee on Science , Technology and Environment) believes that the large volume of laws and resolutions passed at this session shows that the National Assembly is "finalizing" the institutional architecture for the 2026-2035 period, preparing for the 16th National Assembly term.

According to him, if implemented seriously and synchronously, these laws and resolutions will contribute to consolidating macroeconomic stability, improving productivity and competitiveness; promoting digital transformation, green transformation, and inclusive development.

Conversely, if the issuance of subordinate legislation is delayed and enforcement is lacking, these very progressive laws could become new "bottlenecks."

"Therefore, the next task for the National Assembly is to closely monitor the preparation, guidance, and supervision of the implementation, transforming written documents into tangible changes in socio-economic life," Mr. Son said.

Finalizing several important policies on education and healthcare.

Recognizing that high-quality human resources are a key factor in successfully implementing the country's socio-economic development goals and tasks in the new era, the National Assembly has passed laws and resolutions related to education, such as: the Law amending and supplementing a number of articles of the Law on Education; the Law on Higher Education; the Law on Vocational Education; and the National Assembly Resolution on some specific and outstanding mechanisms and policies to achieve breakthroughs in education and training development .

These laws and resolutions aim to create a complete legal basis for perfecting the legal framework of the national education system and creating breakthroughs in education and training development, promoting decentralization and decentralization to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of state management in education.

This also provides a clear legal basis for removing institutional bottlenecks and obstacles, enabling the development of higher education into a center for training high-quality human resources, pioneering in promoting national science, technology, and innovation; and developing a vocational education system that is open, modern, and in line with the trend of international integration...

In addition, the National Assembly issued a Resolution approving the investment plan for the National Target Program on Modernizing and Improving the Quality of Education and Training for the period 2026-2035, with the expectation of creating a fundamental and strong transformation in the quality of education and training; better meeting the needs of human resources, especially high-quality human resources, for the rapid and sustainable development of the country.

Also at this session, the National Assembly considered and enacted the Law on Population; the Law on Disease Prevention; and a Resolution on some breakthrough mechanisms and policies for the protection, care, and improvement of people's health. These are important steps, clearly demonstrating the State's responsibility in protecting, caring for, and improving people's health.

The resolution approving the investment policy for the National Target Program on Health Care, Population and Development for the period 2026-2035 was issued with the goal of building a healthy Vietnam where all citizens receive healthcare, live long, healthy , and wholesome lives, improve physical fitness, raise awareness of health protection, and proactively prevent diseases throughout society.

Many new laws have been enacted, geared towards the "technological era".

A notable highlight of the final session of the 15th National Assembly term was the adoption of important laws in the field of science and technology, promptly concretizing the Party's guidelines and Resolution 57 of the Politburo on breakthroughs in science and technology development.

These resolutions are expected to create a flexible legal framework to promote the rapid and sustainable development of special urban areas; strengthen decentralization and empower local authorities to take initiative, helping to accelerate the implementation of important projects, effectively mobilize social resources, and improve the quality of urban governance.
