Colombo (LNW): A permanent Chairperson will be appointed for the Parliamentary Committee on Public Finances (CoPF), announced Speaker Mahinda Yapa Abeywardena.
The CoPF was recently subject to controversy over SJB MP Harsha De Silva’s lamenting over not being appointed to the post and being removed without notice, and the position of the Chairperson of the CoPF has been vacant for more than three months.
Several MPs representing the Ruling Party were appointed as temporary chairmen of the Committee on four occasions.
