The second legal policy Dialogue in 2012
Participants from relevant central and provincial agencies and civil societies, embassies, international organizations as well as national and international experts heard representative from the Central Steering Committee on Justice Reform presenting key findings on its latest research: "Court governance - international experience and practice in Viet Nam".

According to UNDP Country Director Louise Chamberlain, it was the most comprehensive survey so far, with the participation of more than 2,500 judges, representing almost half of the entire judiciary across provincial and district courts nationwide.

Addressing at the Dialogue, Deputy Minister Hoang The Lien said that Vietnam’s justice sector has gained positive changes after 7 years of implementing the Resolution No 49-NQ/TW and the strategy on judicial reform toward 2020. Of which, the system of People’s courts has had changes in solving the cases. However, to achieve the fundamental changes in judicial reform, it needs to have reforms in the organisation and operation of the court system following the Resolution No 49.
