The sub-committee welcomed the efforts made by the drafting team to collect opinions and improve the documents. These documents will be submitted to the Politburo in early March.

The sub-committee called on members of the drafting team to continue co-operating with the Social and Economic Sub-committee and the Party Regulations Enforcement Sub-committee to gather more public opinion, especially from former leaders of the Party and State, scientists and managers to further improve the quality of the Political Report.

Speaking at the meeting, Trong applauded the efforts of the drafting team to make profound amendments to the Party Congress documents in a timely manner.
