Minister of Justice Nguyen Hai Ninh said: "Our country is in a very special period. We are carrying out a revolution in streamlining the local government apparatus, amending the Constitution and innovating the thinking of law-making with the issuance of Resolution 66-NQ/TW. In addition, the Politburo has also issued many other important Resolutions on digital transformation, international integration and private economic development."

According to Minister Nguyen Hai Ninh, a series of new viewpoints and policies of the Party have been issued, both inheriting previous achievements and having breakthroughs. Therefore, translating these policies into laws and specific actions at a very fast pace requires the work of building legal institutions to be comprehensively innovated.

The Minister emphasized that Resolution 66-NQ/TW has pointed out that the legal system still has many limitations and shortcomings. Therefore, we are forced to change, amend, and issue new documents to overcome these bottlenecks. Moreover, Resolution 66 also requires that the law must create a solid foundation and even lead development, becoming a competitive advantage...

At the working session, experts contributed many profound opinions to the draft Project, aiming to build a system of institutions and laws that strongly arouse patriotism and aspiration for national development, unleash and liberate all resources, promote all motivations; turn institutions and laws into international competitive advantages to realize the country's development goals by 2030 and 2045.

According to experts, the legal system must be designed reasonably in both content and structure, ensuring the dialectical relationship between elements in the legal system, especially between legal fields, between substantive law and procedural law, between sectors, legal institutions and norms, between types of legal sources...

At the same time, ensure the necessary stability to increase predictability for people and businesses in the face of legal changes to promptly adapt, while having the necessary openness and flexibility, predicting the future to make it easy to comply and easy to implement.

Experts emphasized that it is necessary to clearly define the design principles, ensuring compactness, unity, synchronization, feasibility, publicity, transparency and accessibility, promptly serving the tasks of socio -economic development, ensuring national defense, security, international integration, smooth operation of the State apparatus and political system in the conditions of organizing two-level local government, meeting the requirements of realizing the two 100-year national development goals.
