Hon. Shanakiyan Rajaputhiran Rasamanickam requested permission to question the Prime Minister, noting that Opposition Members have limited monthly opportunities to do so. He asked whether the Government would urgently allocate funds for the preparation of a new Constitution, given that no provision for it had been made in the current year’s Budget.

¶ 01 Thank you. Hon. Deputy Speaker, Opposition Members get this opportunity to ask Questions from the Prime Minister only once a month, on the first Wednesday. There are about 60 Opposition Members. If I get this opportunity today, I may not get it again in this term. Please allow me. My Question is: since there is no Budget allocation this year for a new Constitution, can you allocate funds urgently to bring one quickly?
