Personnel work remains the key task of the last session in the 2016-2021 parliament term.

Vietnam’s National Assembly (NA), the country’s highest legislative body, will spend seven out of 12 days in the last sitting of the 2016-2021 term on voting top positions.

Lawmakers will elect 25 leaders at the 11th session of the NA’s 14th term which is scheduled to take place from March 24 to April 8, according to the NA’s Secretary General Nguyen Hanh Phuc.

The voting will elect NA’s chairperson, state president, prime minister, deputy PMs, cabinet members, deputy NA chairpersons, and members of the NA’s Standing Committee, Phuc said at a press conference Tuesday.

At the session, the lawmakers will also give feedback to the review on the implementation of missions in the 2016-2021 term by the NA, state president, the government, the NA Standing Committee, the NA Ethnic Council, the NA Committees, the Supreme People’s Court, the Supreme People’s Procuracy, the State Audit Office of Vietnam, among others.

In the discussions, the NA will decide the number of full-time lawmakers representing Hanoi and likely ratify revised Draft Anti-Drug Law.
