The Hon. Lal Premanath
Hon. Lal Premanath welcomed the Deputy Minister’s attention to a long-standing tourist area that had not previously been formally designated as a tourism zone. He asked whether the Ministry would coordinate with officials and use the District Coordinating Committee to establish a proper mechanism for its development and recognition.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Mr. Speaker, my first supplementary is this.
¶ 02 Hon. Deputy Minister, first, I thank you for your grasp of the matter. This area has been drawing tourists for a long time, but previous governments did not intervene to designate it as a tourism zone. Often these places became popular through social media posts. Therefore, creating a formal process is important. Will you coordinate with officials and, particularly through the District Coordinating Committee with our leadership, to set up a proper mechanism?
