The Hon. Sajith Premadasa - Leader of the Opposition
Sajith Premadasa asked the Speaker to address pending Questions of Privilege raised by MPs Kachirathna, Dilip Wedaarachchi and Jagath Vithana, noting that no rulings, referrals to the Committee on Ethics and Privileges, or inquiries had been made despite the passage of several months. He requested a statement to the House and urged that those matters be formally examined.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Hon. Speaker, you have delivered your ruling regarding the Question of Privilege raised by Hon. Chamindrani Kiriella. However, many other MPs have also raised Questions of Privilege. Hon. Kachirathna, Hon. Dilip Wedaarachchi and Hon. Jagath Vithana raised such questions months ago, but no rulings have been made to date. They have not even been referred to the Committee on Ethics and Privileges, nor has there been any conclusion or inquiry. I request your attention to this. Please make a statement to the House on the Questions of Privilege raised by Hon. Kachirathna, Hon. Dilip Wedaarachchi and Hon. Jagath Vithana, and have them examined.
