Reconstruction plans Monday President Chandrika Bandaranaike Kumaratunga will submit the government's detailed reconstruction plans at the National Committee for Disaster Management that meets tomorrow. The National Committee, consisting of all political parties, including the United National Party, would discuss and review the plans. President Kumaratunga, in a letter to the Opposition Leader, Ranil Wickremasinghe, on January 12, said most of the proposals submitted by the UNP had already been looked after. Regarding the proposal that a Community Action Committee be established, the President had said this could be considered at the time when the Action Plan for Reconstruction begins on the targeted dates. The UNP, in its proposals, urged that a Community Action Committee should be established in every local authority area comprising the Chairman, Deputy Chairman, Opposition Leader, Divisional Secretary and others including religious leaders and laymen. President Kumaratunga, in her letter, assured the Opposition leader that her Government was willing to work with the UNP and the entire Opposition, positively and constructively in the process of the reconstruction of the nation, without any expectation of narrow political gain on her part. |
