National Youth Flag Day launched

COLOMBO: The National Youth Policy Draft Bill was launched at the Youth Affairs Ministry by Minister Pavithra Wanniarachchi on May 23 as part of ceremonies to mark the National Youth Day.

A highlight of the event was the inauguration of the National Youth Flag Day by the President by purchasing the first flag from Minister Pavithra Wanniarachchi at Temple Trees.

Youth Affairs Ministry Website (www.youthmin.gov.lk) was also launched by the Minister as a part of the ceremonies.

A Youth Affairs Ministry release said the Youth Policy Draft Bill was finalised after considering all problems related to youth in detail and taking UNESCO and Commonwealth observations on it into careful consideration.

It has identified five primary objectives as well as youth rights and responsibilities. Eight strategies for its implementation have also been identified.

The National Youth Policy will be implemented through two main institutions namely the National Youth Commission and the Inter Ministerial Executive Committee on National Youth Activity Plan and Youth Affairs.

The public will be given one month’s time to voice their views and suggestions on the Draft Bill before it is tabled in Parliament for approval after incorporating salient features.
