  • To declare a National Import Policy to limit unnecessary goods flowing into the country
  • To declare a set of policies and favourable tax policies to prevent professionals from leaving the country.

  • To create a sensible programme to curb non-communicable diseases
  • To gazette the minimum standards for medical education
  • To prepare facilities to certify the quality of the medical drugs.
  • To review all the cabinet papers that were passed at the cost of the health sector. (Sheain Fernandopulle)
