The Hon. Susil Ranasinghe - Deputy Minister of Land and Irrigation
Clarified that compensation matters fall under the National Water Supply and Drainage Board rather than the Department of Irrigation, and suggested inquiries be directed to the NWSDB. Proposed convening a joint discussion with all relevant parties to resolve the issue.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Hon. Speaker, with regard to compensation, the lead agency is not the Department of Irrigation but the National Water Supply and Drainage Board. Therefore, an inquiry should be made from the NWSDB. As I proposed, we will bring all parties together and resolve this at a joint discussion.
