Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Although not directly part of this question, I will respond as far as I know. The Panadura Bar discussed with us the repairs and the vacant official quarters. We informed the Judicial Service Commission that, if another Court of Appeal division is set up there, another official residence would also be needed. Engineers informed me that one side of the Panadura court premises has a water-level issue affecting construction. Nevertheless, we are focused on your concerns and will discuss with the engineering team to take necessary steps.
