The Hon. Kumara Jayakody
Kumara Jayakody moved two new clauses to amend the principal enactment. The first proposed amending section 28 to extend its wording from generation and distribution to include supply, while the second proposed amending section 40 to clarify its applicability to any person or body of persons. The clauses were brought up and read for the first time.
