The Hon. Suranga Rathnayaka
Asked whether the Aswesuma benefits for recipients enrolled in 2022 under the three-year transitional category, which ended in December, would be extended. He also sought clarification on whether the Government had selected any new beneficiaries since taking office and, if so, how many.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Hon. Deputy Minister, my first supplementary question: For those who began receiving Aswesuma benefits from 2022 for a three-year “transitional” period which ended last December, will that period be extended? Also, since this Government took office, have additional new beneficiaries been selected beyond those who started in 2022? If so, how many?
