    Savers don't risk losing their money
    Amendments to the National Savings Bank Act to enable the capitalisation of more than a billion rupees of depositor funds lying in what the bank calls "dormant accounts'' is now nearing finalisation according to a senior official of the bank.

    "The proposed amendments are now in the final stages,'' the bank's general manager, Mr. N.B.S.B. Balalle said yesterday.

The event was a great success, the organisers said. - (Picture by: Chandrasiri Weerasinghe)
