Ajith P. Perera said agreements signed on 4 and 5 April 2025 had not been tabled despite repeated requests in Parliament. He argued that seeking more time to answer a question on State-to-State agreements appeared to avoid disclosure, and asked the Leader of the House to give a definite date for providing the answers.

Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 Hon. Speaker, these agreements were signed on 04.04.2025 and 05.04.2025. We have repeatedly asked in this House for these agreements to be tabled. Adequate time has been given for this Question. Yet, for such an important Question about the content and nature of agreements between two States, asking for more time appears to be an attempt to avoid answering. I regret that. Hon. Leader of the House, can you provide a definite date by which the answers will be given?
