The Hon. Upul Kithsiri
Upul Kithsiri asked whether relief could be provided to public servants who left Sri Lanka during the economic crisis after attempting, but failing, to obtain timely leave approval through proper procedures. He requested the Minister to consider measures allowing such officers, who hoped to resume their local posts on return, an opportunity to regularize their status.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Hon. Minister, we know a large number of public servants left the country due to the recent economic crisis. There were procedural issues in obtaining leave properly. Some departed with the hope of regaining their local posts upon return. If such officers attempted to obtain leave properly but could not secure timely approval before departing, can any relief now be extended to them? If there are possible measures, please consider granting them that opportunity. I seek your view.
