¶ 01 Hon. Member, I too received the YouTube clip from Sudath Thilakasiri and referred it immediately to the Secretary. You know the Cardiology Unit, OPD and Cardiothoracic Surgery are situated such that moving patients safely is difficult. We now use ambulances, but a permanent solution is needed without burdening patients. Sudath is willing to help. We will discuss and act.
