Party General Secretary To Lam has signed Resolution No. 66-NQ/TW  of the Politburo on innovating legislation formulation and enforcement to meet the country's development requirements in the new era, according to a report from the Government News.

The resolution, dated April 30, 2025,  sets the goal that by 2030, Vietnam will have a democratic, fair, coherent, unified, transparent, and feasible legal system, with a strict and consistent enforcement mechanism.

The system will lay a solid legal foundation for the regular, continuous, and smooth operation of state agencies after they have been rearranged and streamlined, unlock potential for national development in a bid to turn Vietnam into a developing country with a modern industrial base and upper-middle-income status by the end of this decade.

In 2025, the nation targets to basically resolve legal "bottlenecks" caused by existing regulations.

By 2027, the revision, supplementation, and promulgation of new legal documents will be completed to ensure a consistent legal foundation for the operation of the state apparatus under the three-tier governance (central, provincial and communal levels).

By 2028, investment and business legislation will be finalized, contributing to positioning Vietnam's investment environment among the top three in ASEAN.

With a vision towards 2045, Vietnam aims to build a high-quality and modern legal system that aligns with advanced international standards and practices.

This system will be strictly and consistently enforced, respected, safeguarded, and will effectively protect human rights and citizens' rights.

Also on April 30, 2025, the Politburo set up the central steering committee for improving legislation, headed by Party General Secretary To Lam, with Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh and National Assembly Chairman Tran Thanh Man serving as its deputy heads.
