The Parliamentary Communications Department announced that on November 21 at 3 p.m., President Anura Kumara Dissanayake will present the government’s policy statement at the inaugural session of the 10th Parliament.
“The government’s policy statement will be presented at the inaugural session of Parliament.”
The government’s vision and strategic direction are presented in detail in this important speech, which is given at the start each new parliamentary session. The President, as per constitutional powers, presides over the opening meetings of Parliament and sets the tone for legislative priorities through this statement.
Referred historically as the “Rajasana Speech,” this tradition serves as a kickoff to a parliamentary session and gives the president an opportunity to inform Parliament and the public about the administration’s goals and ambitions.
