The government has identified the need for immediate relief to those families and their families on the waiting list.
Accordingly, Cabinet approved the proposals presented by the Minister of Finance and Minister of Samurdhi regarding the special cash allowance to provide the relevant relief to the identified families from May to July. Funding for this purpose will be provided through the Contingent Emergency Response Component in projects funded by the World Bank.
