The Hon. Mahinda Jayasinghe
Mahinda Jayasinghe objected to the conduct of proceedings after a request had been made to continue without a lunch break. He said the Government had agreed out of courtesy to the Opposition Leader, but Members, including the Opposition Leader, were leaving for lunch, making the arrangement unfair and undermining the proceedings.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Why ask “who”? You requested to proceed without a lunch break. Yet everyone is leaving for lunch. This is not fair; not a media show. As a courtesy to the Opposition Leader’s request, we agreed. But now the Opposition Leader himself has gone for lunch.
