Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 My first supplementary question: Under the previous Governments, solar energy projects were offered via Expressions of Interest. Reportedly, tariffs paid per unit vary. It raises the question whether political favoritism or other undue influence occurred. Hon. Minister, do you have a plan to introduce a stable, fair tariff?
