Consultancy Service to Conduct Survey on Implementation of Laws on Promulgation of Legal Normative Documents in Vietnam

The National Legislative Development Project (NLD) is a 7-year project funded by the Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development of Canada (DFATD). The Implementing Partners of the project include the Ministry of Justice (lead partner); the Law Committee of the National Assembly; the Office of Government; Ministry of Finance; Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development; and, the Ministry of Industry and Trade.

NLD is aimed at supporting an integrated program of reform of the Vietnamese law-making process and to improve the quality of economic legislation. NLD is designed to assist the Government of Vietnam (GOV) in developing a strengthened, effective and transparent legal framework that will reflect the needs of Vietnamese citizens and support economic growth. Further details of NLD are described here.

The Ministry of Justice of Vietnam (MOJ), in the framework of the approved Project Implementation Plan (PIP) of NLD, as part of activities to support GOV in carrying out a reform program to propose, consolidate and introduce a new common Law on Promulgation of Legal Normative Documents has plan to carry out a survey. The objective of the survey is to assess the practical situation (obstacles, inadequacies and weaknesses) of the two current Laws to come up with recommendations for developing a new Law on Laws. The findings shall also serve for planning further technical assistance from the NLD to MOJ and GOV in the legislative reform process of the country. NLD is now seeking a qualified national Consulting Firm/Institution to conduct the above-mentioned survey.

The scope of survey should cover representatives and stakeholders from public sector agencies, private business sector, social and professional organizations and citizens at central level and in at least 05 provinces with proper representation of regional and socio-economic development factors.
