During the course of the session, full-time legislators will mull over and give opinions to a number of important issues, including a draft NA resolution on a pilot programme allowing people to select car plates via auctions.

They will opine on a draft report summarising opinions and recommendations of voters and people submitted to the NA’s 4th session and a report on monitoring the results of settlement and response to voters' petitions sent to the NA’s 3rd session.

The lawmakers will look into reports on the implementation of the NA’s resolutions on piloting specific mechanisms and policies for the development of Ho Chi Minh City and on specific financial and budgetary mechanisms and policies for Hanoi.

In addition, the NA Standing Committee will examine reports presented by the Government on the performance of the socio-economic development plan and state budget estimate in 2022; the plan and estimate for 2023; the results of implementing the 2022 public investment plan; and expected public investment plan for 2023.

A government report on the results of the implementation of the national target programme on socio-economic development in ethnic minority and mountainous areas for 2021-2030 will also be considered.

Other issues under consideration include the set of identification for the NA; the preparations for the NA’s 4th session; and measures to handle problems at some toll stations/BOT projects, among others.
