Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Hon. Presiding Member, responding to Hon. Dayasiri Jayasekara: there is no question of us being beholden to anyone in cricket or elsewhere. We are beholden to no one, and we will take responsibility across all sports. We are already studying the vacancies and discussing how to fill them appropriately. Though you said we were not in the Chamber, I listened to your speech on the phone—technology allows that—even while briefly away on work. Thank you for the minute, Hon. Presiding Member.
