The Hon. (Prof.) A.-H.M.H. Abayarathna
Hon. (Prof.) A.-H.M.H. Abayarathna clarified a previous answer to Hon. Chamara Sampath Dasanayake, stating that no Minister has taken over government bungalows or official residences. He said Deputy Ministers are occupying official MP apartments at the Loris Housing Complex, while six government bungalows were allocated to the Bribery Commission, the Police Department, and the Ministry of Justice.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Hon. Chairman, this morning it became clear from Hon. Chamara Sampath Dasanayake’s remarks that there is some confusion regarding my answer to his question. The matter is as follows: No Minister has taken over any government bungalows or official residences.
¶ 02 What some Deputy Ministers are occupying are the official apartments for MPs at the Loris Housing Complex. The government bungalows that were allocated, as I previously stated, were to the Commission to Investigate Allegations of Bribery or Corruption, the Police Department, and the Ministry of Justice — six in total. The Deputy Ministers’ allocations are not government bungalows or official residences, but official MP apartments at the Loris Housing Complex.
