In response to the proposed appointment of a committee to probe the scam involving the import of a fertilizer stock from China, Chief Opposition Whip Lakshman Kiriella queried in Parliament as to why investigations are not handed over to the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) instead of a committee headed by a retired judge.
