The Hon. Asitha Niroshana Egoda Vithana
Asked the Minister of Finance, Planning and Economic Development for details on the Millennium City Housing Complex at Oruwala, including the extent of Steel Corporation land purchased by Ceylinco Developers, whether the Urban Development Authority approved the development plan, and what lands were required, planned, and physically reserved for common amenities. The question also sought clarification on whether common-amenity lands were instead allocated from marshland outside the complex, the legality of such action, any alienation of reserved lands, and measures taken to recover or address those lands.
