Hon. Mujibur Rahman said a challenge raised six months earlier remained unaddressed and questioned the Government’s claims on transparency. He cited the failure to appoint the Chairperson of the Right to Information Commission and alleged that requests under the Right to Information Act were not being answered, arguing that the Government had abandoned transparency.

Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 I will conclude. We raised this challenge six months ago as well. Nothing has been done. Today you spoke about transparency. The Chairperson of the Right to Information Commission has still not been appointed. Requests under that Act are not being answered. Therefore, we can see that transparency has been abandoned by this Government. Thank you.
