The National Assembly Chairwoman also proposed that agencies thoroughly grasp the spirit of the 14th Party Congress Resolution, especially the requirement to strongly shift from policy to action, from political determination to specific results.
Each agency and unit, first of all the head, must be directly responsible for the progress and quality of each assigned task; ensuring that the programs and plans of the National Assembly and the NASC are implemented seriously, synchronously, and effectively right from the beginning of the year and the beginning of the term.
The National Assembly Chairwoman also requested members of the NASC to closely follow practical requirements, give key opinions, and clearly express their views.
