Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 Hon. Minister, I was not prepared to raise supplementary questions, but since you referred to the Chilaw development, let me ask this first supplementary. A building under construction for about 10 years is still incomplete at that hospital. Hon. Minister, please look into it. Even specialists do not have space—this has been discussed since my time in the Provincial Council—and the situation remains the same. I raise only this issue as my first supplementary and conclude; the second supplementary will be asked by Hon. Rohana Bandara.
