Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Hon. Speaker, I make a constructive proposal. If the Government brings a motion to obtain additional funds required for this disaster, we can support it. If a Supplementary Estimate is presented on Monday, we can extend full support to secure the necessary funds to provide relief to the affected people. I also reiterate that, beyond allocating funds, it is crucial to promptly channel those funds to District and Divisional Secretariats and all relevant institutions so that the affected receive timely relief.
