Mr. Perera stated that it is important to note that Hon. Harshana Nanayakkara has not indicated holding a doctoral degree in the information provided to Parliament and the appearance of the title "Dr." before the Minister's name was a result of an error in entering the relevant data. Accordingly, steps have been taken to rectify this mistake.
He also expressed deepest regret for the inconvenience caused to the Minister of Justice and National Integration, Attorney-at-Law, Hon Harshana Nanayakkara, in this regard.
Mr. Jayalath Perera further stated that the process of re-checking and updating the information of all Members of Parliament on the parliament website is currently underway.
