It is miraculous to here that neither the political authority no the Kolonnawa UC provided the sums required to relocate the families affected by the garbage dump.It is pathetic neither UDA nor the Professional know northein about the UDA Law its obligations or responsibilities to the public. First all Colombo Municipality cannot dump garbage at the said site as the use of the land for any purpose comes with in the definition of development activity in S.29 of the UDA Law. By allowing it to happen either in fear of Gotabhaya Rajapaksa or any one else it is duty bound to face tune that would be played as a result. So it is the responsibility of the UDA to relocate the families affected b y this dump.It has no roight to sk for funds. It was created to create fund necessary for the carrying out of development projects under the development plan. It is necessary to check what the land use prescribed by the UDA Develiopment Plan for the dumping site.

UDA have kept control and ownership of the Meethotamulla dump and have not allowed any foreign or local company to perform any clean up work by actively seeking to interrogate for any minute flaws in their proposals in a country and by technical people that does not understand its own waste issues ( anyone in UDA competent enough to understand the technology which has been implemented for years in other countries? If so, why wasn’t it implemented here earlier?). They have not even paid the residents to leave the area which they had been promising since the flood last year. The flood caused a lot of damage too and UDA should have been more pro-active and are now back tracking and blaming others to save their proverbial backsides.They have unfairly dismissed a British company and any other competent suitable company who does not “align” with their “monetary objectives” at the cost of innocent lives.SDon

Just go and search "SJP Waste to Energy Ltd" on google, then you will come to know the fact, you don't need a ministry to tell you that!

True, not the best proposal was chosen. Who was prepared to pay the most under the table was the qualifier.It is too late to state that the Company that was chosen is not competent. You want to close the stable door after the horse has bolted.
