The Hon. Imran Maharoof
Hon. Imran Maharoof raised concerns about vaccine shortages affecting districts and requested prompt government action to resolve them. He also asked about measures to address the shortage of minor employees in the health sector, both nationally and in his district, and whether long-serving voluntary workers in the sector would be granted permanent appointments.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Hon. Speaker, I sought last year’s figures because shortages of vaccines are creating many problems in all districts. I asked what action the Government has taken. As the Hon. Minister said, I request quick solutions.
¶ 02 My first supplementary question relates to staffing. There is a severe shortage of minor employees in the health sector in our district and nationally. What solution has the Government adopted? Also, many have worked voluntarily for 10 to 15 years—has the Government taken steps to grant them job permanency?
