The Hon. S.M. Marikkar
Hon. S.M. Marikkar questioned the Minister on housing delivery and title deeds, noting that only about 5,000 houses had been built over 14 years. He referred to the previous Government’s assurance that deeds would be issued to all, and asked whether it was correct that only around 1,678 units had deeds prepared and only 137 had actually received them.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 My first supplementary, Hon. Minister. As you did not provide the aggregate, I will move to another point. Over 14 years, only about 5,000 houses have been built. The Ranil Wickremesinghe Government stated that deeds would be given for all. According to your answer, out of 5,000 houses only about 1,678 units have deeds, and only 137 have actually received deeds. Is that correct?
