Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 Hon. Deputy Minister, my first supplementary question:

¶ 02 From the figures you presented and from practical observation at the sites, it is evident these projects were implemented without proper management. Many houses appear to have been given to political associates and to those with some means. Some houses have already been sold. Has your Ministry or the NHDA granted any approval to sell these houses?
