The Government decided to debate the Colombo Port City Economic Commission Bill on May 19 and 20 in Parliament, disregarding objections from the Opposition at a Party Leaders’ meeting held recently who have alleged that the Bill would pave way for the Port City to be used as a money laundering hub.
