¶ 01 Hon. Speaker, I thank the Hon. Prime Minister for the clear, detailed answers. My first supplementary to the Prime Minister is this: The Government has moved to provide school shoes. In my Badulla District, especially Haputale, many rural poor schools and estate-related children lack shoes. Is there a defined mechanism, particularly to cover estate schools and poor children?
