Accordingly, he requested that the Central Bank of Sri Lanka submit letters to the IMF within this week requesting that the report, as well as the relevant statistics and the preliminary report, be revised.
Replying to this the Leader of the House Dinesh Gunawardena stated that the government has nothing to hide in it and will take steps to hand it over to the party leaders as soon as possible.
