The Presidential Office held a press conference on December 25 to announce President Vo Van Thuong’s order on promulgation of seven new laws that were adopted by the National Assembly during its recent sixth session.
They are the Law on Citizen Identification, the Law on Forces Participating in the Protection of Security and Order at the Grassroots Level, the Law on Telecommunications and the Law on Water Resources which will take effect from July 1, 2024 and the Housing Law, the Law on Real Estate Business and the Law on the Management and Protection of National Defense Works and Military Zones, which will come into force from January 1, 2025.
Worthy of note, the 2023 Law on Citizen Identification expanded the subjects as compared with its 2014 version, targeting Vietnamese citizens, related agencies, organizations and individuals, as well as people of the Vietnamese origin living in the country with their nationality remaining unknown.
Meanwhile, the Law on Real Estate Business is intended to ensure the stable, healthy, transparent, sustainable development of the domestic property market, as well as the harmonious management of the land use right, labor and real estate markets.
The revised Housing Law aims to institutionalize the policies of the Party and the State on housing development for the people, especially low-income earners, and the poor.-(VLLF)
