Ravi Karunanayake raised a point of order objecting to delays in answering his first Standing Order 27(2) question. He argued that if Members are being asked to limit the number of questions and have them answered the same day, seeking additional time to respond is inconsistent with that requirement.

Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 Sir, I rise to a point of Order. We are told questions are too many and must be limited and answered the same day, yet for my first SO 27(2) Question today, time is being sought. How is that acceptable?
