Hon. Chamara Sampath Dasanayake

## Summary The speech by Hon. Chamara Sampath Dasanayake consists primarily of a procedural action — the playing of an audio recording in the chamber — directed at the attention of Hon. Minister Wasantha Samarasinghe. The Hansard record does not capture the content of the audio recording itself, making it unclear what specific argument or evidence was being presented. The intent appears to have been to draw the Minister's attention to the recorded material as part of a parliamentary point or challenge.

rose. Hon. Minister Wasantha Samarasinghe, please listen to this. At this stage, an audio recording was played.
