The Hon. Sajith Premadasa - Leader of the Opposition
Sajith Premadasa questioned why Parliament was not informed between 7 and 10 April about an incident for which sufficient information had existed to lodge a CID complaint on 23 March. He requested a clear ministerial explanation and argued that at least a brief statement should have been made to notify Parliament of the incident and the complaint.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Mr. Speaker, I do not intend to interrupt unnecessarily, but the Minister’s answer must be clear. If there was enough information to lodge a CID complaint on 23 March, why was Parliament not informed between 7 and 10 April? At least a brief statement could have been made to notify Parliament that the incident had occurred and a complaint had been lodged.
