The announcement of members of the Parliamentary Committee on Public Enterprises (CoPE) and the Parliamentary Committee on Public Accounts (CoPA) will be made Monday (03), reports said.
These announcements will be made by Ruling Party member Mahinda Yapa Abeywardena in his capacity as the Speaker of Parliament.
Despite continuous demands by the Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) to hand the chairmanships of the two committees over to the Opposition, the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) which still owns the majority power in Parliament, strongly expresses its objection.
Accordingly, the decision on the appointment of chairpersons to both the CoPE and the CoPA will be made after convening the two committees, subsequent to the announcement of their members on Monday.
