The Supreme Court’s determination on the Sri Lanka Cricket Bill has been communicated to the Hon. Speaker of Parliament and was notified to Parliament by the Hon. Speaker during today’s Parliamentary session.
According to the determination, two Clauses of the Bill require certain amendments, and upon such amendments being made, those Clauses would cease to be inconsistent with the relevant provisions of the Constitution and could be passed by a simple majority.
The Supreme Court has further determined that none of the other provisions of the Bill are inconsistent with any provision of the Constitution.
Sri Lanka Cricket considers this determination to be a significant milestone towards achieving meaningful and far-reaching reforms in the governance and administration of cricket in Sri Lanka, and one of the most important reform initiatives in the history of Sri Lanka Cricket.
