Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Yes, we will expedite. I am not seeking to justify the lack of minimum facilities; it is unacceptable. Many courts have faced long-standing issues, which we are systematically addressing. In respect of this court you highlighted, the work should be finished this year. It is not acceptable to keep paying rent when a proper building exists. We will make every effort to install the court within this year, and I am confident of success.
