National Assembly Chairman Tran Thanh Man said that in the last three consecutive elections, Vietnam has achieved a high voter turnout rate (over 99%), and the structure and composition of delegates basically meet the requirements.
However, some localities are still confused in preparing documents and forms. The application of information technology is still limited and lacks uniformity, leading to a large amount of manual work, which is prone to errors.
Therefore, the National Assembly Chairman requested more thorough and synchronous preparation, especially in the current conditions when the application of information technology is bringing certain advantages and conveniences in connecting data, ensuring smoothness.
The National Assembly Chairman stated that the National Election Council has voted to approve the draft Resolution on Guidelines on candidate application forms, ballots and other types of documents used in the election process. This is to create legal uniformity nationwide; ensuring that all election processes are carried out on the basis of standardized forms.
“The core and strong innovation are still the priorities, creating maximum convenience for candidates, election agencies, voters, avoiding errors and complaints,” said the National Assembly Chairman.
The workload in the coming time is very large, the National Assembly Chairman noted that it is necessary to do a good job of preparing to organize a national conference to deploy election work; complete the issuance of documents, materials, and manuals serving election work, prepare for election work, and establish organizations in charge of local elections.
The National Assembly Standing Committee prepares a report to the National Election Council on the expected structure, composition, and number of National Assembly deputies.
