The Joint Opposition has decided to request Speaker Karu Jayasuriya to hold a vote by name when the No Confidence Motion (NCM) against Minister of Industry and Commerce, Resettlement of Protracted Displaced Persons, Co-operative Development and Vocational Training and Skills Development Rishad Bathiudeen is debated and taken to vote.
UPFA Parliamentarian Udaya Gammanpila said he will make the request to the Speaker on 4 June as the public should know the decisions made by their representatives.
He added that as opposed to the nominal vote system, in the case of the electronic vote system the name of the MP cannot be seen. In the case of the former, the relevant MP could be identified through their image. The Speaker will accept it as it protects the right to information, he claimed.
The NCM against Bathiudeen will be debated on 18 and 19 June and voting will be on 19 June at 6 p.m., he noted.
