The Hon. Wasantha Samarasinghe
Wasantha Samarasinghe objected to what he described as misuse of parliamentary time during adjournments. He argued that if the Opposition wished to make statements and leave without engaging, a separate day should be allocated for that purpose, emphasizing that such conduct was not consistent with parliamentary procedure.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Hon. Speaker, Parliament’s time is being misused. If the Opposition wants to speak and leave every morning and evening during adjournments, set aside a day for them to speak and go; we will come another day to respond. That is not our procedure.
