Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Second supplementary: The “Arogya Suwatha” Primary Care Centre project is commendable, and we thank you for commencing the first in Mapalagama, Galle. However, many regional health centres face acute space issues—e.g., at Yakkalamulla, maternity and child clinics lack shelter; mothers and children are exposed to sun and rain, leading to illness. This is countrywide. Can the Government urgently refurbish such centres at Divisional Secretariat level?
