President chairs meeting on implementation of 2021 amnesty decision
(VOVWORLD) -President Nguyen Xuan Phuc chaired a meeting with the Central Advisory Council on Amnesty (CACA) and leaders of relevant ministries and agencies on Tuesday to ensure the implementation of the amnesty decision in 2021 on schedule amid complicated developments of the COVID-19 pandemic.
President Phuc hailed CACA and inter-sectoral working teams for offering consultancy to the Government and localities to carry out the decision seriously, promptly and in line with the law.
The President asked CACA to ensure the implementation progress as planned, and continue overseeing the work to prevent unqualified prisoners from being named in the amnesty list.
President Phuc said further attention must be paid to popularising the significance of the 2021 amnesty on the occasion of the 76th National Day (September 2), especially helping freed prisoners reintegrate into the community.
