reached and exceeding expectations, she noted, adding that defence and security
have been firmly safeguarded and the position of Vietnam in the region and the
world has risen.

past three years, while pointing out shortcomings for timely solutions.
During the session, the NA monitored the implementation of
the legislature’s resolutions on thematic supervision and question-and-answer
sessions since the beginning of the tenure, said Chairwoman Ngan.

Government, the Supreme People’s Court, the Supreme People’s Procuracy and
ministries and agencies in performing their assigned tasks.
The deputies cast confidence votes on officials holding
positions elected or approved by the NA, Ngan said, highlighting the
significance of the votes in objectively assessing the performance of the
officials.
The top legislator also stressed the higher quality of the
sixth session with debates taking place in a democratic and responsible
environment, attracting the attention of people and voters nationwide.
The meeting’s outcomes have helped consolidate solidarity and
consensus needed to complete tasks set for the next year and the 2016-2020
tenure, she said.
