Appointment not finalised

UNF members to discuss the matter before finalising

By Yohan Perera  

UNP Member of Parliament Ranjith Madduma Bandara yesterday said his appointment as the General Secretary of the UNP-led alliance was yet to be finalised though he had been named for the post. 

“ I was informed by Leader of Opposition Sajith Premadasa that he had decided to appoint me as the General Secretary but the UNP and UNF members had to discuss the matter before finalising my appointment,” Mr Madduma Bandara said.  Asked whether the UNP Working Committee would discuss the matter when it met on Thursday, he did not rule out such a possibility.  

Responding to a question as to whether he and others who boycotted the last Working Committee meeting would participate in the Thursday’s meeting, he said the MPs concerned would discuss the matter and come to a decision in time for the meeting.
