Group 3, tasks and solutions are orientational, not urgent and require time for careful research and evaluation to propose the development or amendment and supplementation of relevant laws, and submit them to the National Assembly for consideration and approval.

For this group, the Ministry of Finance proposed to include it in the draft Government Action Program to assign relevant ministries and branches to study and implement according to a specific roadmap.

In his concluding remarks, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh acknowledged, commended and highly appreciated the agencies in developing and submitting Resolution 68 to the Politburo for promulgation, as well as in developing the draft Resolution of the National Assembly and the Action Program of the Government.

The Prime Minister emphasized the urgent need to concretize and institutionalize the Party's guidelines in Resolution 68 so that the policies can soon be put into practice; therefore, the draft Resolution must be submitted to the National Assembly at the ongoing 9th Session, in order to immediately resolve urgent issues. With a short time, high requirements, and rich content, it is necessary to choose a suitable and feasible approach.

Analyzing and emphasizing some additional contents for agencies to continue to complete the draft, the Prime Minister said that it is necessary to review and focus on the contents that businesses and people are most looking forward to, the necessary and urgent contents, the contents that can be done immediately without requiring many resources, the contents that are "pushes, levers, and fulcrums", bringing great impact and efficiency, truly removing difficulties and obstacles, creating new impulses, new motivations, creating movements and trends for business development, liberating resources and productivity.

With the determination to achieve the goal of having 2 million enterprises nationwide by 2030, double the current number of nearly 1 million enterprises after nearly 40 years of Renovation, because when enterprises develop, the country develops, the Prime Minister clearly stated that administrative procedures must be as fast as possible, as simple as possible and at the lowest possible cost, especially simplifying procedures for business establishment, dispute resolution and bankruptcy.

Along with that, there is a mechanism to promote business development to create jobs and livelihoods for people, such as encouraging and creating conditions for business households to become enterprises, small enterprises to become large enterprises and large enterprises to become larger enterprises.

At the same time, concretize the contents of Resolution 68 on fully ensuring property ownership rights, freedom of business, and equal competition rights; promote public-private cooperation in the forms of public leadership - private administration, public investment - private management, private investment - public use.

Strengthen decentralization for ministries, branches, localities, and investors in ordering works and projects for enterprises to implement with the principle of ensuring progress, quality, no capital increase, and no corruption, waste, or negativity. The mechanism is open but there must be tools to strengthen supervision and inspection.

Regarding taxes, those that can be done immediately should be implemented promptly, and those that need further research should be continued.

In particular, the Prime Minister emphasized that in order for people and businesses to feel secure in investing, producing and doing business, it is necessary to specify the content of Resolution 68 on "complying with the principle of clearly distinguishing criminal, administrative and civil responsibilities; between legal entities and individuals in handling violations", ensuring the principle that when handling violations and civil and economic cases, priority should be given to applying civil, economic and administrative measures first, allowing businesses and businessmen to proactively remedy violations and damages; in cases where the practical application of the law may lead to criminal prosecution or not, criminal prosecution should be resolutely not applied; in cases where criminal prosecution is required, priority should be given to measures to remedy economic consequences first and this is an important basis for considering subsequent handling measures.

Assigning Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Chi Dung to continue to directly direct the drafting of the Resolution, with the spirit of not being perfectionist or hasty, the Prime Minister requested to urgently collect opinions from the business community, continue to complete the draft Resolution in May to submit to the National Assembly at the 9th Session, ensuring the requirements according to Resolution 68 of the Politburo.

The Prime Minister directed the development of a draft Action Program of the Government to implement Resolution 68 with a spirit of high determination, great effort, drastic action, focus, key points, and assignment to ensure "6 clear": clear people, clear work, clear time, clear responsibility, clear authority, clear products.

The Prime Minister also noted the need to promote and do well the work of communicating policies on private economic development according to the Resolutions of the Politburo, the National Assembly and the Government's Action Program.
