COPE; NO ACTION TALK ONLY
The government has not taken any action so far though the Committee on Public Enterprises (COPE) has found damning evidence of financial irregularities in institutions totalling over Rs 500 billion, state sources said. The COPE report revealed financial irregularities in 229 government institutions.
Chairman of COPE and Minister D.E.W Gunasekara who was asked as to what action the government will take against the persons and institutions that have misappropriated public funds, remained tight-lipped.
