Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 Hon. Speaker, this is not about political advantage. I ask him to rewatch what he said and see how threatening it was. It was wrong, and it carried a gendered meaning. If he does not understand, I suggest he and the SJB gain that understanding. Practice what you preach about women’s rights.
