The Hon. (Dr.) Nalinda Jayathissa
Acknowledged that the previous Government’s act was egregious and said the Ministry would consult the Attorney General to provide as much information as legally permissible. He stated that there was no intention to suppress information, but that disclosure must remain within the existing legal framework.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 As you said, there is no debate about how egregious the act by that Government was — we all accept it. On the issue you now raise, we will discuss with the Attorney General and attempt to provide the maximum information permissible. We have no intention to suppress information. But within the existing legal framework, the Ministry has presented its position on disclosure.
