NA Chairman Vuong Dinh Hue said the organisation of the vote of confidence aims to promote the efficiency and effectiveness of the parliament’s supervisory activities and the State apparatus’s activities, help assess the prestige and performance of officials, and help them realise the confidence they are given to continue making self-improvement and bettering their performance. It is also a basis for authorised agencies to carry out personnel planning, training, appointment, and use.

Therefore, this is an important work that must be implemented in line with regulations and with democracy, objectivity, impartiality, and transparency guaranteed, he noted.

Under current regulations, officials holding positions elected or approved by the National Assembly shall be subject to vote of confidence. Vote of confidence shall not be held for officials who are waiting for retirement or elected/appointed in the same year the vote of confidence is conducted.
