Cabinet this week gave approval to convert Sri Lanka Railways (SLR) into a closed department and to introduce a specific and unique salary structure for the department. A committee was appointed to study and make recommendations on how to implement this proposal.

The committee, under the chairmanship of a senior official in the Ministry of Public Administration, Disaster Management, and Livestock Development, will study and make recommendations pertaining to the practical problems which may arise when implementing this proposal.
