Why this status
Partly delivered. The 2026 Budget introduced a contributory pension scheme and a concessional housing-loan scheme for migrant workers, creating new financial products for Sri Lankans abroad. However, the reviewed Budget does not introduce the specifically promised expatriate bond, so the wider pledge is not fully delivered.
