The Hon. Sunil Rathnasiri
Hon. Sunil Rathnasiri raised concern that former district fuel distribution tanks are no longer in use and that islandwide fuel distribution now depends on bowser owners. He asked whether the Ministry has called a tender to award fuel distribution to a single individual, warning that such a move could affect around 400 families operating bowsers.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 My second supplementary: Those tanks were for district fuel distribution. Now the tanks are gone. Islandwide distribution relies on bowser owners who perform a vital role. There is widespread concern that the Ministry is moving to award fuel distribution by tender to a single individual, which would imperil around 400 bowser-operating families. Has such a tender been called, and if so, why?
