Citizens Charter will greatly benefit public - Minister Jayasuriya

POLONNARUWA: Opening the first day service of the third "Janasathkara Sevaya" held in Polonnaruwa over the weekend Public Administration and Home Affairs Minister Karu Jayasuriya said that he has no regrets over his decision to join the Government since it is the duty of all to strengthen the hand of the President at the present juncture.

"Earlier, a solution could not be arrived at due to the lack of a majority in Parliament. We have now provided this to the Government", said Jayasuriya. Minister Jayasuriya said he was convinced about the ability of the President to deal with the national problem. Hence the decision of the UNP Democratic Group to join hands with the Government.

He said the "Citizens Charter" to be implemented from August 1, 2007 will serve to create awareness among the public on the exact duration within which an official task will be accomplished. The Charter will also hold Divisional Secretaries directly responsible for any delays in the implementation of official tasks. Home Affairs Minister Chandrasiri Gajadeera stressed that the need of the hour was correct political leadership. Public servants should work without idling . The Janasathkara Sevaya ended after solutions being found for 11,967 out of 16,963 public petitions submitted to the respective offices of the various departments.
