AI summary generated by gpt-5.5

K. Sujith Sanjaya Perera reiterated that the Rs. 4,000 million allocation must cover both unfinished housing projects and new construction. He argued that, under those constraints, only about 1,500 to 2,000 houses could realistically be built, and said further debate would not change that position.

Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 Hon. Deputy Minister, regarding your clarification: I said about Rs. 4,000 million is allocated, and that money must cover both completing previously started houses and building new ones. Even then, you cannot build more than 1,500–2,000 houses. There is no point arguing further; that is the reality.
