Abstract

The removal of National Assembly deputies from office has been recognized early on and throughout the amendments of Vietnam’s Constitution. Currently, the 2013 Constitution regulates that a National Assembly deputy shall be removed from office by voters or the National Assembly once he/she is no longer worthy of the People’s confidence. Despite being an important issue reflecting the direct democratic right of the People in exercising the state’s power, the practical application of laws on the removal of National Assembly deputies from office in Vietnam still demonstrates some limitations and shortcomings, such as all cases of removal from office were conducted by the National Assembly, no removal cases conducted by voters has been recorded; the foundation for the removal of National Assembly deputies from office is predominantly due to the wrongful conduct violating the legal regulations and standards of the National Assembly deputies themselves. This article aims to analyze the limitations and problems in legal provisions and evaluate the practical situation of the removal of NA deputies from office in Vietnam; on such a basis, the authors recommend a number of solutions to improve.
