Former JVP Western Provincial Councillor Attorney-at-Law Sunil Watagala told a news conference that Letter of Credits (LCs) have been opened without Cabinet approval and that it was illegal. He said Cabinet Paper regarding the import of vehicles was presented on May 18 and added that the LCs had been opened on April 22. Cabinet Paper was presented on May 18 and it was rejected at the next Cabinet meeting on May 24. The Prime Minister said later that the Cabinet Paper was suspended. However, Cabinet Spokesman Keheliya Rambukwella said LCs have already been opened and it cannot be suspended now. These LCs had been opened on April 22 by the Treasury Secretary through the Peoples Bank, he said. Mr. Watagala said the NPP was filing a case at the Supreme Court next week seeking an order to cancel the vehicle import. ( dailymirror.
