Ngan said Vietnam has been improving legal regulations in line with
international law and commitments that Vietnam has signed and involved,
including the EVFTA.
The country listened to opinions and learnt from experience of developed
countries in the promulgation and execution of law, she added.
In the process of law-building, the Vietnamese NA has worked to ensure the
business and investment rights of domestic and foreign enterprises are not
affected, she said.
The legislature also closely supervised the implementation of issued laws to
ensure no barriers cause difficulties for people and businesses to exercise
their investment rights.
The two sides have organised a number of workshops to discuss matters of
different perceptions, she said, adding that Vietnam is willing to provide
relevant information that the EC is interested in.
President Jean-Claude Juncker spoke highly of the socio-economic development of
Vietnam over the past years.
He said he has signed and sent the EVFTA to the European Council, which will be
later submitted to the European Parliament (EP).
The EVFTA needs the approval of the European Parliament (EP) while the
Investment Protection Agreement (IPA) needs the approval from member parliaments
of the European Union, he added.-VNA
