Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 Hon. Member, your question is timely and important. I endeavoured to answer today; however, as the question reached me only yesterday, there was insufficient time to compile data. With my Ministry’s Head of Expenditure scheduled for debate tomorrow, my staff is under heavy workload. I will certainly provide a full answer within one week and request that time.
