Hon. Vasudeva Nanayakkara,— To ask the Minister of Education,—
(a) Is he aware that—
(i) there are instances where the opportunity was not given even to face the interview, which was conducted to admit students to the grade 1 in schools, due to the non existence of a title deed to prove the ownership of the dwelling place; and
(ii) a separate appeal committee was established with regard to the children who were not admitted to the school due to the non existence of a title deed during the period of the previous government;
(b) Will he inform this House—
(i) whether there is a law that the relevant deed of the land should be submitted to prove the residency to get a child admitted to a school;
(ii) the number of children who were not admitted to schools due to the mere reason of the absence of deeds; and
(iii) whether steps can be taken to solve this problem in a fair manner if the residency can be proved without considering the existence or non existence of a deed;
(c) If not, why?
