According to Director Nguyen Huy Tien, currently, the crime situation is complicated, the number of cases, crimes and law violations has increased rapidly compared to before with many new crimes of a more complicated nature.
In addition, the Procuracy sector has implemented many new tasks according to the provisions of the law, the workload has increased significantly; along with that, the requirements for law and discipline are increasingly high, so the sector has to face many pressures in the situation of lack of staff, lack of judicial titles (Procurators at all levels) which are mandatory titles to perform the tasks.
Therefore, the Chief Justice of the Supreme People's Procuracy proposed that the National Assembly Standing Committee assign additional positions of Prosecutors in various ranks to create favorable conditions for leading, directing and guiding primary Prosecutors to perform their duties within the assigned staffing quota...
In addition, the Chief Justice of the Supreme People's Procuracy recommended that the Government direct ministries, departments and branches to study and synthesize the causes and conditions leading to the increase in crimes, complicated developments, and negative impacts on social order and safety; strengthen inspection and review work to detect and overcome loopholes and shortcomings in State management in all fields; the work of appraisal and asset valuation still has many shortcomings that do not meet the requirements in the fight to resolve criminal cases.
From there, build a comprehensive program on crime prevention and combat for local authorities and judicial agencies to strengthen international cooperation to coordinate the application of crime prevention measures in general and high-tech crime in particular./.
