He sought clarification from the Deputy Minister on the mechanism by which the Government intends to mobilize funds for proposed investments exceeding Rs. 1,300 billion.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Mr. Speaker, I will raise only one supplementary question. We know this year's Budget was presented as a very people-friendly Budget. We also learned that under the new Government no money had been printed. My supplementary question to the Hon. Deputy Minister is this: the Budget presented investments amounting to over Rs. 1,300 billion. When there are investments exceeding Rs. 1,300 billion, what is the Government’s mechanism to mobilize the required funds?
