The experts’ committee report on the proposed Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) agreement will be referred to the new Cabinet, Foreign Secretary Jayanath Colombage said.

He told Daily Mirror at an interview that the committee had raised many issues regarding national interests and that answers needed to be found for these questions.  “I think the report will be submitted to the new Cabinet. The new Cabinet will be expected to make observations from the view point of each ministry. Once that is done, it will be referred to Parliament probably, debated to arrive at a compromise. I don’t know what that compromise will be,” he said.
