Letter of Intent not tabled in Parliament: Harsha alleges



President Ranil Wickremesinghe has failed to table the Letter of Intent with regard to the IMF agreement even though he claimed that he tabled three documents in Parliament, SJB MP Dr. Harsha de Silva said today.

Speaking during the debate on the IMF agreement, he said the Letter of Intent which was signed by the Finance Minister and the Central Bank Governor was the most important document and that it was absurd debating the agreement without it.

He said the President has tabled only the open letter to Sri Lanka’s official bi-lateral creditors, special authorization under the Foreign Loan Act and the extended agreement under the Extended Fund Facility (EFF) which includes press release, staff report and statement by the executive director of Sri Lanka.

The MP said urged the President to table the Letter of Intent in Parliament claiming that it was the most important document with regard to the IMF agreement. (Ajith Siriwardana)
