The Hon. Manjula Suraweera Arachchi
Manjula Suraweera Arachchi asked the Minister about duty-relieved goods, machinery, equipment, and vehicles imported for the Broadlands project, noting that they had allegedly not been formally handed over to the Ceylon Electricity Board after completion of the power plant. He alleged misuse of public resources, including unused cab vehicles parked in various locations, and requested an inquiry and immediate procedure to return the assets to the Government.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Hon. Minister, my first supplementary question is this.
¶ 02 For the Broadlands project, a large volume of duty-relieved goods, equipment, machinery and vehicles were brought in. If the power plant’s work has been completed, we observe that these items have not been formally handed back to the Ceylon Electricity Board. Even brand-new cab vehicles are parked at various places. That amounts to a misuse of public resources. Will you conduct a proper inquiry and ensure that these public assets are handed back to the Government without delay? When will you implement the procedure?
