The Hon. Bimal Rathnayake
Bimal Rathnayake raised a procedural concern that an Opposition Member had reportedly not been allocated speaking time by the Opposition and was under pressure despite having the right to speak in Parliament. He requested that the matter be discussed and resolved either by the Leader of the Opposition or through the Chair.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Hon. Deputy Speaker, though not directly related to us, this affects Parliament. The Hon. Member from the Opposition discussed with us that he has not been given time by the Opposition to speak and is under pressure. He has a full right to speak here. Therefore, I kindly request that this matter be discussed and resolved—by the Leader of the Opposition or by you.
¶ 02 Thank you.
¶ 03 Next, the Hon. (Dr.) Janaka Senarathna. You have eight minutes.
