¶ 01 Hon. Speaker, as the Hon. Member stated and as I also mentioned earlier, over a long period unlawful acquisitions and other illegal activities have been allowed to occur freely. We can observe that not only in Minuwangoda but in many places. Therefore, within the existing legal space, we will act as required in the future strictly in accordance with the law.
