Chamara Sampath Dasanayake questioned the Speaker on the expansion of the Uva Provincial Public Service Commission from 6 to 10 members. He argued that this would increase costs despite prior commitments to reduce expenditure, and asked why such a large membership was needed for Uva.

Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 Mr. Speaker, my first supplementary: Earlier the Uva PSC had 6 members. Under your tenure it is now 10. Costs increase, though you said you would reduce expenditure. Why so many for Uva?
