Parliament passed regulations related to the state of emergency without a vote a short while ago.
The regulations were passed after a day-long debate.
The regulations were gazetted in the wake of the Easter Sunday terrorist attacks.
Former President Mahinda Rajapaksa is due to vacate his official residence at Wijerama Mawatha, Colombo this morning, a Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) source said.
The Presidents’ Entitlements (Repeal) Bill was passed by a majority of 150 in parliament today. However the opposition MP’s were absent during the voting.
