Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 Hon. Speaker, I draw the attention of this august House to a pressing problem prevailing especially in agricultural districts. Since a category of 48 CC-type motorcycles are not registered, fuel stations do not issue fuel to them. As these motorcycles are widely used among the farming community, I request that a system be arranged to provide fuel to them.
