12th Party Central Committee convenes third meeting

In his opening speech, the Party Chief said the working regulations of the Party Central Committee, the Politburo, the Secretariat and the Commission for Inspection should be built on the previous ones and need to be specific, cohesive and suitable with the reality, ensuring democracy will be promoted further and discipline must be well maintained.

It is necessary to improve capacity and efficiency in the Party’s leadership and promote the autonomy, creativity and responsibility of other organisations in the political system, he added.

The Party General Secretary asked Party Central Committee members to directly give feedback to draft regulations concerning inspection, supervision and enforcement of the Party Statute.

He also underlined the importance of personnel recommendations for State agencies in 2016-2021, saying “it is a crucial task”.

He said at the 13th National Assembly’s 11th session, NA deputies elected and approved the posts of President, Prime Minister, National Assembly Chairperson and 34 other leaders of State agencies, introduced by the Party Central Committee at its second meeting.

At this meeting, these posts will not be re-voted, but the remaining 13 posts that have not yet be introduced to the 12th Party Central Committee’s second plenum will go through a voting before being submitted to the 14th National Assembly for consideration, election or approval at its first session.

The third plenum will run till July 8.
