HÀ NỘI — The 13th National Assembly (NA) Standing Committee kicked off its 49th session in Hà Nội yesterday, during which court-related issues and preparations for the 14th parliament are high on the agenda.

They will also mull over a report about the enforcement of the law on thrift practices and wastefulness prevention in 2015, along with the handling of the State budget spending the same year, she noted.
She added during the 49th session, the National Election Council will report on the results of the May election of deputies to the 14th NA and all-level People’s Councils for 2016 – 21. Later, the participants are set to give opinions on the agenda of the first session of the 14th NA.
