    "content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. On 16th of October, the Chairman gave a response to a statement I had requested through the Departmental Committee on Education. In the response to the statement, I had demanded to know why the equipment for Chamasiri Technical and Vocational College (TVC) had not been delivered, and when it will be delivered. The Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Education assured this House that the equipment will be delivered before the 5th of November, and that delivery and commissioning will be complete on the same date so that the students of Chamasiri TVC can utilise it for practical learning. Hon. Speaker, I want to bring to your attention that, as of today, the delivery and, of course, the commissioning of that equipment has not been done. I seek your intervention on the next step. It appears that the Cabinet Secretary for Education is taking the role of the oversight of this House very lightly. If the Statement that was read before the House was indicating and confirming the dates and it has not been done, then I think the Cabinet Secretary is taking this House for granted. I would urge you to give direction so that the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Education can take the necessary action to have the equipment for Chamasiri TVC delivered. He should also explain whatever is happening."
