An Action Plan to implement the recommendations of the Lessons Learnt and Reconciliation Commission (LLRC) will be ready soon, External Affairs Ministry said yesterday.

“It is being prepared by a Committee headed by presidential secretary Lalith Weeratunga with the assistance of many other stakeholders including the Ministry of External Affairs,” Ministry Secretary K. Amunugama said.

He said no specific date could be given about when it would be ready but that it would be ready soon.

Mr. Amunugama confirmed that External Affairs Minister G.L. Peiris had not given a written document to US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton but the government plans to implement the LLRC recommendations had been verbally communicated.

He said contrary to certain public perceptions, the Ministry of External Affairs has a strong relationship with the Ministry of Plantations and the two Ministers have regular consultations with each other to arrive at common policy decisions. (Ayesha Zuhair)

I don't see the need for an Action Plan Committee to be appointed to implement the recommendations made by the Commission. Aren't we going in circles by inviting more people?

The action plan should comprise eminent persons resident permanently in the North and East as the affected people are only from North and East and particularly Killinochi and Mannar districts

We thought you all have got the message by now. It is just waste of time if you are still wondering in the dream-land of Eelam. We dont consider North & East as one bloc any more.
We consider all regions of Sri-Lanka without any discrimination. Only the Central Government of Sri-Lanka will rule the Land. All affected people any where will be well looked after by the govt. and there will not be any discrimination against anybody and all citizens treated equally.
