A recent audit report reveals that 28 vehicles owned by the President’s Office are not insured. (Sri Lanka Latest News)
Among those vehicles, 13 vehicles are high security vehicles and the value of one vehicle is between 25 and 30 crore rupees, it is stated in the report.
According to the audit report, due to the high value of the corresponding high-insurance vehicles, nearly two crores of rupees have to be paid annually for each vehicle for insurance.
The Accounts Officer of the Presidential Secretariat has informed the Auditor General that due to the high cost, these vehicles have not been insured.
It is stated in the report that alternative policy decisions should be introduced to meet the needs if the existing laws of the country are not followed, but this has not been done.
