The Hon. Ananda Wijepala
Hon. Ananda Wijepala raised a point of order disputing previous claims about staff transfers, stating that all transfers had National Police Commission approval. He said around 4,000 uniformed personnel are on non-uniform light duties and that any reassignments of disabled officers occurred only after a second medical board, with no officer being forced into unsuitable work.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Sir, I rise to a point of order. Many of the claims just made are untrue. All these transfers were done with NPC approval. On disabled officers: about 4,000 uniformed staff are on non-uniform, light duties. Only after a second medical board were some reassigned. No disabled officer is being forced into unsuitable work.
