The LLRC spokesman Lakshman Wickremasinghe has said that the Commission has stopped gathering evidence from the public now as they have enough information to compile a report and give recommendations, Xinhua reported.

Wickremasinghe has told Xinhua that the final report of the commission including the recommendations will be completed by November this year and handed over to President Rajapaksa.

President Mahinda Rajapaksa appointed the LLRC in May 2010 to probe the events in the period between 21st February 2002 to 19th May 2009 and report on the lessons to be learnt from those events and whether any person, group, or institution directly or indirectly bears responsibility for those events.

The LLRC held its first sittings on August 11, 2010. In November 2010, the President extended its mandate till May 15, 2011.
