Govt. Printer waiting for vital gazette
View(s):The Government Printers Office has been put on standby since yesterday morning to print any gazette notification, Government Printer Ganga Liyanage told the Sunday Times. Ms. Liyanage said they were informed both by the Presidential Secretariat and the Speaker’s office that there could be an important gazette notification issued at any moment and to keep the staff prepared.
However, until last evening no gazette notification had reached the Department. The convening of Parliament which is currently prorogued until November 16 should be announced through a gazette notification. Speaker Karu Jayasuriya on Friday said President Maithripala Sirisena would summon Parliament by Wednesday. He said he was awaiting the issue of the gazette notification, the latest by Saturday evening.
