The Deputy Minister supported the proposed regulation concerning the Colombo Port City Commission, stating that it is needed to improve the quality of the 68 ongoing developments and should be adopted. He said the Government would continue bringing necessary regulations to strengthen the National People’s Power’s economic policy, in response to the economic policy failures for which the electorate had mandated change.

Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 I will conclude quickly, Mr. Speaker.

¶ 02 The next regulation is regarding the Colombo Port City Commission. It is a regulation necessary to enhance the quality of the 68 developments being created. It is a good regulation. We also believe it is something that should happen.

¶ 03 Finally, for all these reasons, this is the discussion we must have. The people elected us because of the crises in the economic policies implemented so far. Going forward, we will bring the necessary regulations and strengthen the economic policy of our National People’s Power. With that, I conclude. Thank you.
