The Hon. Hesha Withanage Ankumbura Arachchi
Hon. Hesha Withanage Ankumbura Arachchi raised concerns that despite the large number of State institutions, only a small proportion use State security service providers, while private security contracts have reportedly involved irregularities. He asked whether the Government would strengthen and expand the two State security entities, including by using retired military and Civil Security personnel, so they could provide security for more State institutions and reduce fraud and corruption in contracting.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Supplementary: Given the large number of government institutions, only a small share use State security entities. Many private contracts have reported irregularities. Can the Government strengthen and expand the two State entities (and utilize retired military personnel and Civil Security personnel) to take over security of State institutions, thereby reducing fraud and corruption in contracting?
