The Government has no intention of dissolving the Civil Security Department (CSD), Senior Adviser to the President on National Security and Chief of the Presidential Staff Sagala Ratnayake said.

He stated that the Civil Service Department was approved as a depreciable service according to the 2015 Cabinet paper, but that period has now lapsed, President’s media Division (PMD) said.

Ratnayake noted that the members of the Civil Security Department are allowed to request a service extension beyond the age of 55, enabling them to serve for up to 60 years.

He emphasized that there have been no alterations to these policies and that there are no plans to modify them in the future.

He made these statements while participating in an appreciation ceremony held yesterday (24) afternoon at the headquarters of the Civil Security Department in Katubedda, Moratuwa, to acknowledge the efforts and contributions of the officers of the Civil Service Department.

During the ceremony, which was chaired by the Minister of State for Defence Premita Bandara Tennakoon, the contributions of the Civil Security Department in service to the country were recognized and appreciated.

During his visit, Mr. Ratnayake also interacted with the members of the Civil Security Department, inquiring about their work and engaging in friendly conversation.

The Director General of the Civil Security Department, Major General Ranjith Kalkahewege (Retired), presented a commemorative gift to both Sagala Ratnayake and the Minister of State for Defence, Premita Bandara Tennakoon, to mark the occasion.
