Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 Give me one more minute, Madam Deputy Chairperson of Committees.

¶ 02 Today you can do one clear thing: I have long said this — make common toilets mandatory at every 25 km and maintain them. I saw someone say they are building toilets every 25 km; that is not what I mean. Enforce it. Let’s prepare and implement such a plan. If you start mudslinging like the old Parliament, this won’t happen. Therefore, please be patient and listen to this matter. I conclude.
