President Ranil Wickramasinghe has proposed the establishment of a separate unit for the restructuring of government-owned commercial enterprises.
The interim budget has been presented in Parliament today (30) and steps have been taken through the interim budget to allocate an amount of Rs.200 million to implement the relevant proposal.
The government has taken steps to set up this new unit due to the fact that several major public enterprises are in a state of high public financial risk.
