The Hon. Amila Prasad
Amila Prasad urged the Government not to hinder or harass businesspeople through arbitrary actions while businesses are struggling to rebuild. He argued that such conduct would undermine the purpose of business-enabling laws and discourage entrepreneurs, and requested government attention to the issue.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 I will conclude in a brief moment, Hon. Presiding Member.
¶ 02 Therefore, I make a humble request from the Government: at a time when businesses are being rebuilt with difficulty, do not obstruct or harass businesspeople through arbitrary actions. The reason is this: while you bring laws that supposedly enable business, if your own people go and disturb these businesspeople, they will lose heart. I conclude by requesting the Government to pay attention to this as well.
¶ 03 Thank you very much.
