(HBO) – The enhancement of law dissemination, legal aid and reconciliation activities in Tan Lac district of Hoa Binh province has resulted in encouraging outcomes over the last years.

 

The communication team of Lung Van commune, Tan Lac district, puts on a play popularizing the road traffic law.

In 2017, authorities and sectors at all levels in Tan Lac have promoted law dissemination through diverse activities so as to help improve legal awareness among local residents.

 


Laws have been popularised at meetings of agencies, organisations and residential areas, as well as training courses. Up to 356 communication events involving 25,000 people were held, focusing on laws that were issued or took effect recently.

The district’s justice board compiled and distributed 50 sets of documents on a project promoting the dissemination of basic content of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and Vietnam’s law on civil and political rights among officials, public employees, civil servants and people between 2015 and 2020. It also distributed 50 sets of documents popularising the 2016 Law on Children.

Legal aid has been stepped up. The legal aid division of Tan Lac district gave advice pertaining to 21 cases and organised six mobile legal aid events which attracted nearly 400 participants. These activities have helped equip low-income earners, ethnic minorities and policy beneficiaries with legal knowledge.

Meanwhile, the role of grassroots reconciliation teams has been brought into play. There are now 239 reconciliation teams with more than 1,500 members across the district. They have successfully handled 54 cases or 85 percent of the total they dealt with.

Other programmes and plans on law dissemination are also underway. They include enhancing law dissemination to improve young people’s law observance in Tan Lac; popularising anti-corruption law and the UN Convention against Corruption among officials, public employees and civil servants; and stepping up the popularisation of the basic content of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and Vietnam’s law on civil and political rights among officials, public employees, civil servants and people between 2015 and 2020. Tan Lac district is also carrying out a scheme from 2017 to 2021 to boost law dissemination in some areas with many law violations.

In late October, district authorities held four training and popularisation classes for local officials, heads of reconciliation teams, and over 100 residents. The events focused on the laws on children, environmental protection and food safety, and the Penal Code’s articles on environmental crime, child abuse, gambling, drug crime, and robbery, among others.

The enhanced law dissemination has helped keep the rule of law, political security, and social order and safety in Tan Lac district./.
