Stronger innovation in supervision methods
According to the report, supervision efforts have grown more flexible and responsive to real-world conditions, particularly amid the apparatus restructuring and the shift to a two-tier local administration model, as well as progress in the implementation of the Politburo’s strategic resolutions.

For 2027, the N.A. Committee for People’s Aspirations and Supervision proposed that the N.A. Standing Committee submit three supervision topics to the legislature for consideration, comprising the enforcement of policies and laws on administrative procedure reform in state management for the 2021–2026 period, the enforcement of food safety policies and laws over the same timeframe, and the operations of provincial-level People’s Councils for the 2026–2031 term through June 2027.
N.A. Chairman Tran Thanh Man hailed the report as comprehensive and properly focused on key issues. He asked for greater emphasis on recent innovations in supervision methods, stressing that oversight must deliver tangible results and strictly adhere to the assigned mandates.
According to him, the N.A.’s supreme supervisory role and the N.A. Standing Committee’s thematic supervision have focused on institutional improvement and the robust digital transformation to drive development. Particular emphasis was placed on the prompt and effective monitoring of the organization of the election of deputies to the 16th N.A. and People’s Councils at all levels for the 2026–2031 term.
Looking forward, he recommended increasing the number of thematic supervision activities by the N.A. Standing Committee, with a sharper focus on urgent and strategic sectors while maintaining flexibility and impact.
He also urged further innovation in oversight techniques to ensure that timely and quality information and data are available for reports and recommendations to competent authorities.

Ready for 16th N.A.’s first session
Lawmakers also reviewed preparations for the 16th N.A.’s first session, which is scheduled to open on April 6 morning and close on April 24. The session will span 11 working days across two phases, with an eight-day recess in between to allow agencies to refine draft laws and resolutions. The N.A. Standing Committee will convene as needed during the break to handle matters within its authority.
The agenda includes organizational and personnel decisions, consideration of draft laws and resolutions, socio-economic performance, financial and budgetary matters, supervision activities, and other key issues.
Le Quang Manh, N.A. Secretary-General and Chairman of the N.A. Office, reported that preparations, covering facilities, digital systems, technical infrastructure, security, health care, logistics and disease prevention, are largely complete and ready to support the session.
Chairman Man pressed the Government to ensure ministries and agencies submit complete and quality documents for draft laws and resolutions on schedule.
On the legislative front, he stressed the need to balance quality with timely passage of laws and resolutions, noting that the N.A. may hold thematic sessions for urgent matters rather than overloading the inaugural session.
Deputies also discussed proposals on office space and facilities for the 16th N.A., amendments to a resolution governing expenditure for N.A. activities, and updates to salary and allowance frameworks for state leadership positions and judicial personnel.
