The Standing Committee of the National Assembly has just decided to convene the 5th Extraordinary Session of the 15th National Assembly. The session is scheduled to open on January 15th and close on January 18th in a plenary session at the National Assembly building.
In the notice convening the session, National Assembly Secretary General Bui Van Cuong stated that the expected content and program of the session will be sent to delegates for their opinions on January 8th.
Previously, at the 28th session (December 2023) of the National Assembly Standing Committee, the Secretary General of the National Assembly emphasized that the contents planned to be submitted to the National Assembly at the extraordinary session must meet the criteria of urgency, must be prepared very carefully, and must achieve high consensus and unity among agencies, minimizing the submission of contents with many differing opinions.
At the same time, it is necessary to calculate and ensure a reasonable timeframe within the session for agencies to research, consider, and explain the opinions of National Assembly deputies, and to finalize documents for submission to the National Assembly for approval in accordance with the prescribed procedures.
A view of the opening session of the 6th meeting of the 15th National Assembly.
In particular, for large projects and drafts with complex content, National Assembly deputies also need time to study and prepare their opinions.
Mr. Bui Van Cuong stated that, based on an assessment of the quality of preparation, if the documents meet the requirements and ensure the progress and quality, there are three items proposed to be submitted to the National Assembly at the extraordinary session.
Firstly, we need to consider and approve the draft Law on Land (amended) and the draft Law on Credit Institutions (amended).
Secondly, the National Assembly will consider and approve the Draft Resolution on a number of specific mechanisms and policies to remove difficulties and obstacles and accelerate the implementation of national target programs.
Thirdly, consider adopting a Resolution on supplementing the medium-term public investment plan using central government budget funds for the period 2021-2025 from the general reserve fund corresponding to the increased revenue and savings in central government budget expenditures in 2022 for public investment tasks and projects; and supplementing the medium-term public investment plan for Vietnam Electricity Group from the reserve fund of the medium-term public investment plan (if any).
These topics were all discussed during the 29th session of the National Assembly Standing Committee, which took place from the afternoon of January 8-9 .
