Bond Commission, PRECIFAC reports debate postponed indefinitely
Parliament sittings were adjourned after 40 minutes today after it was decided to indefinitely postpone the debate on the Bond Commission and PRECIFAC reports due to non-availability of English or Tamil translations of the PRECIFAC report.
Speaker Karu Jayasuriya apologized for not having the Tamil and English translations ready. “There are about 8,000 pages in that report. We have asked the authorities to get this translation and the Official Languages Department is working on it," he said.
Leader of the House and Minister Lakshman Kiriella then proposed that the debate be postponed as it was legally and technically wrong to proceed on the debate without providing the translations.
Thereafter the Speaker with the consent of the House postponed the debate and adjourned the sittings till tomorrow.
