Noting that a foundation has already been laid for a free media culture, media minister Gayantha Karunatilake says the right to information act will soon be presented to parliament.

He said this at a discussion he had at his ministry today (03) with deputy British high commissioner Laura Davies.

Later, the minister met foreign journalists and discussed media freedom, media policies as well as injustices caused to journalists in the past.

The journalists present included IPI’s Scott Gruff, IFJ’s Chris Warren, IFEX’s Siddharth Vardharajan and Sunil Jayasekara, while ministry secretary Karunaratne Paranawithana too, participated.
