Committee on Public Finance (COPF) Chairman, MP Harsha de Silva, has appealed to President Anura Kumara Dissanayake, seeking to resolve the serious matter of Sri Lanka operating without the constitutionally mandated head of the National Audit Office.
In a 06-point letter to the President, MP de Silva said an Auditor General must be appointed urgently in the backdrop of the current disaster situation in Sri Lanka.
“Given the large number of transactions taking place now with Cyclone Ditwah reconstruction and the yet to be legally established Rebuilding SriLanka Fund, an Auditor General must be appointed urgently,” he pointed out in a statement on ‘X’. (Newswire)
