The Hon. (Mrs.) Oshani Umanga
Hon. (Mrs.) Oshani Umanga asked what measures the Ministry is taking in relation to the Budget allocation of Rs. 1.5 billion for infrastructure development in 32 existing zones and the opening of new zones. She raised concerns about neglected maintenance, loss of opportunities for genuine investors, unauthorized occupation or residence within some zones, and asked about interim sub-leasing and steps to expedite the 15-step process so existing factories can function smoothly.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Hon. Speaker, my second supplementary: Rs. 1.5 billion has been allocated in this Budget to develop infrastructure in 32 existing zones and to open new ones. Maintenance was neglected, real investors lost opportunities, and in some zones people are occupying land or even residing within the zones. What action is the Ministry taking, including on interim sub-leasing you mentioned, and to fast-track the 15-step process so current factories can operate smoothly?
