Govt to unplug itself from Co-operative Service Programme: Minister

Date:

Colombo (LNW): The government is working to drop out from the Co-operative Service Programme, in the absence of a proposal from the Co-operative on what kind of intervention should the government be giving for the moving forward of the service, said Trade Minister Nalin Fernando.

However, if the Co-operative Service is affected by the government’s intervention, the government should refrain from intervening in its activities, the Minister added.

The government’s intervention would only be necessary if the Co-operative suggests itself on what kind of intervention should it need and how should it be implemented, he emphasised.

Fernando further noted that the Prime Minister and himself were thinking of taking decisions in this regard in the near future.
