Testifying before the Commission, head of the Administration Unit of the AG Department ASG Sumathi Dharmawardena said that although the recommendations were sent to the Public Service Commission on November 27, 2019, the Commission had not sent any acknowledgement yet.  ASG Dharmawardena said that he had previously given statements regarding the file sent by the TID in 2017 at the Parliamentary Select Committee (PSC).
