Sri Lanka's main opposition United National Party (UNP) calls on the government to implement the recommendations made by the Lessons Learnt and Reconciliation Commission (LLRC) without delay.
UNP General Secretary Tissa Attanayake says the implementation of the LLRC recommendations would help prevent foreign countries from making various accusations against Sri Lanka.
Attanayake told Colombo Page that the UNP was ready to assist the government if it was looking at implementing the 13th Amendment.
He observed that the government needed to reach a consensus with the political parties on implementing the recommendations and continue with it.
He added that implementing the LLRC recommendations were important than trying to re-convene an All Party Conference to discuss the ethnic issue.
The government however points out that LLRC made its report public only in December last year and the government is in the process of implementing the recommendations methodically.
