The building of the Law on Civil Defense aims to complete the legal corridor and create favorable conditions for the active prevention, control and response to disasters, incidents, natural disasters, and epidemics, ensuring security and safety for the country when such situations happen.
The bill comprises of seven chapters and 71 articles clarifying regulations on civil defense activities, the rights and obligations of agencies, organizations and individuals in engaging in the activities, as well as State management and resources for their implementation.
