The Minister said he had met two groups regarding the Kandy lawyers’ offices on UDA land and had assisted them, inviting any unresolved matters to be referred to him. He also stated that court digitization is being advanced through Justice Arjuna Obeysekere’s Committee, with Kandy selected as one of the model courts and therefore likely to receive the programme earlier than many others.

¶ 01 Hon. (Mrs.) Kiriella, on the Kandy lawyers’ offices: two groups met me; it is UDA land and I have assisted. If unresolved, please direct them to me. On digitization, Justice Arjuna Obeysekere’s Committee is driving a rapid programme, and Kandy will be one of the model courts—so you will receive it earlier than most. Thank you.
