Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 Hon. Deputy Chairperson of Committees, before Hon. Chanaka leaves, I must say this. Regarding the Presidential Commission report, he knowingly gave a wrong answer, I believe. Do you still not know who that President was? Shall I say? The report was delivered under Gotabaya Rajapaksa, not Ranil Wickremesinghe. You do not even know that.
