The Hon. K. Kader Masthan
K. Kader Masthan said Mullaitivu faces significant shortages and that the Rs. 7 million allocated is insufficient to provide the required office infrastructure. He noted that previous efforts were affected by the economic crisis and argued that the post-war lagging district needs greater allocations, possibly through a supplementary estimate. He asked whether additional funds would be provided to expedite the works.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Mr. Speaker, as per the Hon. Minister’s reply, there are significant shortages in Mullaitivu. The allocation of Rs. 7 million is inadequate. Even a supplementary estimate may be needed to secure funds. Past efforts failed due to the economic crisis. Mullaitivu, as a post-war lagging district, requires greater allocations. With Rs. 7 million, the necessary infrastructure for these offices cannot be provided. Will additional funds be allocated to expedite these works?
