Except for lawmakers in other localities, those living and working in Hanoi will be present at the National Assembly building for the online meeting, Phuc said.
The legislative body will hold the plenary session at its headquarters as soon as the epidemic is brought under control. Lawmakers will focus on approving key bills and resolutions as normal.
Phuc said the 9th session is scheduled to open between May 20-25 and last between 12-17 days, shorter than previous sessions.
