Parliament should decide if it should be dissolved or not after the Presidential election, Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe told Parliament yesterday. He was responding to a question raised by JVP MP Bimal Ratnayake during the round of ‘questions for oral answers’. “Today the power to dissolve Parliament lies with Parliament unlike in the past where the power was vested on the President.In the event the need arises to dissolve Parliament it can only be done with the agreement of Parliament. The decision on whether or not to dissolve parliament, after the presidential election is something that Parliament should decide upon, together with the party leaders consent,” he said.
