Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 Hon. Deputy Minister, during the Good Governance period, the NHDA constructed houses in the Vanni — Mullaitivu, Mannar and Vavuniya. Now many of them are half done. These people are distressed and poor. The final phase of the war in the Vanni was devastating; they still wander unable to complete those houses, burdened by debt. Even if they do some work themselves, they cannot finish the houses. Will these houses be completed during your Government? We and the people believe you will do it. We request you to do so, and I expect your assurance.
