¶ 01 Hon. Speaker, it functions as a Base Hospital. Our next step is to complete the facilities required for its category. The vision is to eventually elevate capacity—Matara already has a District General Hospital; Deniyaya is presently a “B” category Base Hospital, and we will add facilities accordingly. We have not finalized any change of classification, but we will provide maximum facilities for this Base Hospital.
