Proposal to amend the regulations on the authority of the National Assembly and the National Assembly Standing Committee

Abstract

The authority of a state agency and a position in a state agency indicate the limits of rights and obligations that the subject must carry out to carry out its activities. The authority of state agencies and positions in state agencies are stipulated quite expressly in the 2013 Constitution. From the provisions of the 2013 Constitution, the laws on the organization of the state apparatus have specifically stipulated the authority of state agencies and positions in state agencies. However, after 10 years of implementation, the provisions on the authority of the National Assembly and the Standing Committee of the National Assembly in the 2013 Constitution and the laws on the organization and operation of the National Assembly have arisen with shortcomings such as: i. The authority of the National Assembly to decide on war issues has not been clearly defined; ii. The authority to annul joint legal documents that are contrary to the Constitution, laws, and resolutions of the National Assembly is still open; iii. The Standing Committee of the National Assembly's authority to adjust administrative units' boundaries below the province and centrally-run city level has not been scientifically defined; iv. The authority of the Standing Committee of the National Assembly to pass resolutions nullifying the authority of the President... The article analyzes the provisions on the authority of the National Assembly and the Standing Committee of the National Assembly in current law, points out the shortcomings and difficulties, and makes recommendations for improving the law.
