The Government submitted to the National Assembly for approval 99 laws and resolutions, including 55 adopted at the 10th session of the 15th National Assembly, many of which introduced special mechanisms and policies to implement the Politburo’s strategic resolutions. A total of 374 decrees were also issued, he noted.
PM Pham Minh Chinh highlighted the strong determination of the Party, National Assembly and Government to thoroughly remove legal barriers, transforming institutional bottlenecks into a national competitive advantage to unlock resources and create a stable legal framework for development.
Implementing the Politburo’s Resolution No.66-NQ/TW, Vietnam in 2025 basically completed the removal of legal bottlenecks, achieving a rate of 98.3%. Priority was given to addressing shortcomings in legal documents and ensuring the timely institutionalization of major Party resolutions.
Legal issues arising from administrative restructuring and the two-tier local government model were also handled, alongside efforts to simplify and cut administrative procedures.
These measures aim to support the 2025 growth target of over 8%, while maintaining macroeconomic stability, controlling inflation, ensuring major economic balances, and promoting fast and sustainable development in tandem with social progress, environmental protection, and national defense and security, said the PM.
