¶ 01 Let me end with this as well. We have dreams to establish a National Film Conservation Archive, a Cinema School, an International Theatre School, and an International Visual Arts Centre, among many others.

¶ 02 Finally, during the Committee Stage of the Budget, many contributed to the debate on our Ministry’s Heads. I thank all who spoke, and our Ministry’s Secretary, Mr. Prince Senadeera, and all officials—Secretaries, Directors-General, Commissioners—for compiling the necessary information and arguments. I also thank the Hon. Speaker and all Members who served at the Chair, and the Parliamentary staff. A prosperous country and a beautiful life are our aspirations.
