Sri Lanka’s Supreme Court is expected to communicate its determination on the Bill proposing a new constitution for Sri Lanka Cricket to the Speaker of Parliament this week. The Court heard submissions from petitioners challenging the Bill throughout last week. The proposed framework seeks to strengthen checks and balances and give professionals a greater role in the administration of SLC.
The Supreme Court will today continue hearing arguments on the proposed new constitution for Sri Lanka Cricket, with the removal of District Cricket Associations’ voting rights remaining a key bone of contention.
Parties supporting the bill will make their submissions through a galaxy of lawyers, followed by observations from the Attorney General’s Department.
