Important tool to support justice
The Prime Minister also frankly pointed out a number of difficulties and challenges in national digital transformation in general and digital transformation of the People's Court sector in particular, such as the slow construction and completion of institutions to serve digital transformation; the reduction and simplification of administrative procedures have not met the needs. The quality of online public judicial services is not high; digital infrastructure has not met the development needs; connection, integration, data sharing, and data digitization still have many limitations; network security and information security in many places have not received due attention...
Pointing out many lessons learned from practice, the Prime Minister said that we must consider adjudication as the center, litigation as a breakthrough and digital transformation as an important tool to support the implementation of justice; always improve the capacity of court administration on a digital platform; provide people with many convenient judicial services, and build the image of the Court as a true support for the people in protecting justice. Digital transformation aims to improve the quality and accuracy of judgments; prevent injustice, mistakes, and criminals from escaping, ensuring empathy, reason, humanity, and persuasion; and build an increasingly modern People's Court sector, keeping up with and keeping up with the development trends of the world.
According to the Prime Minister, in the coming time, the world situation is forecast to continue to change rapidly and complicatedly; in general, there will be more difficulties and challenges than opportunities and advantages. The negative factors of the market economy and integration will have increasingly profound impacts, especially in the context that our country is a developing country, the economy is in transition, the scale is modest, the openness is high, and the resilience is limited. Therefore, the tasks set for the People's Court sector are very important, very glorious but also very heavy.
Wishing that the Court sector will continue to promote its fine traditions, strive to overcome difficulties and challenges, uphold its sense of responsibility, and well implement President Ho Chi Minh's teachings - "Serving the public, upholding the law, being impartial and impartial," and successfully completing all assigned tasks, the Prime Minister requested the Court sector to continue to promote digital transformation, considering it one of the most important tools, the most effective and efficient support in all aspects of the work of the People's Court sector.
Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh requested the Court sector to continue to strongly promote digital transformation and build e-Courts with the spirit of "5 pushes". These are: Accelerating the completion of institutions, mechanisms and policies in digital transformation and building e-Courts; Accelerating the development of digital infrastructure and digital platforms to create an important premise in building e-Courts and ensuring network security and information security in all situations; Accelerating the creation of digital data, integration, connection, interconnection, continuous, smooth and synchronous sharing to improve the governance and enforcement capacity of the Court on a digital platform; Accelerating the development of digital human resources, digital skills and professional training to meet the requirements of developing e-Courts; Accelerating extensive propaganda in the People's Court sector so that all cadres, civil servants and judges unanimously respond to and participate in the digital transformation process and build e-Courts.
The Prime Minister requested to focus on perfecting institutions and policy mechanisms to promote digital transformation in the People's Court sector and develop e-Courts. In particular, the sector should promptly submit to the National Assembly for approval the Law on Organization of People's Courts (amended) and the Civil Procedure Code (amended), creating a premise for online litigation activities; regulations on electronic evidence; scientific basis and legality of electronic evidence recovery, functions, tasks and powers of subjects conducting electronic litigation.
Along with that is the innovation of the operating model to digital-based management; increasing publicity and transparency of the Court's activities, especially on the Supreme People's Court's Electronic Information Portal and the websites of the High People's Courts and Courts at all levels; improving the capacity of administration and enforcement of the Court on a digital platform; promoting the modernization of the People's Court sector, especially the development of digital infrastructure; building data centers, digitizing records, integrating and sharing information and data; striving for 100% of the People's Court's work areas to be converted and uniformly managed on a digital platform.
The Prime Minister proposed to promote the exploitation, use and development of online trial platforms towards 100% of People's Courts meeting the conditions in terms of equipment and human resources to organize online trials; promptly study and propose to perfect the legal foundation on electronic litigation; promote simplification and restructuring of administrative procedures to improve the quantity and quality of online public judicial services.
In addition, the industry needs to simplify administrative procedure settlement records for people; research integration with personal identification applications to help people easily access and use services anytime, anywhere without having to go directly to the Court.
The Prime Minister hopes and believes that the People's Court sector will continue to synchronously and effectively implement the task of digital transformation and build an e-Court in the spirit of Resolution No. 27/NQ-TW of the Central Committee, contributing to the successful implementation of the goals and requirements set forth in the Resolution of the 13th National Party Congress: "Building a Vietnamese judiciary that is professional, modern, fair, strict, honest, serving the Fatherland and the People"./.
