Apparently - according to Sri Lanka’s Human Rights Commission Chief Pratiba Mahanamathe who in turn quoted the presidential secretary - "most" of the LLRC recommendations had been addressed.
Speaking to Daily Mirror, Mahanamathe added, "there is time till March, next year to look into other areas where there is concern."
One concern he said, was India's inclusion as one of the three countries, along with Spain and Benin, assigned the role of carrying out the assessment of Sri Lanka's human rights situation at the UPR (Universal Periodic Review) later this month, as India 'voted against Sri Lanka'.

Sri Lanka is one of the most dangerous places in the world to be a journalist. Tamil journalists are particularly at threat, with at least 41 media workers known to have been killed by the Sri Lankan state or its paramilitaries during and after the armed conflict.
Despite the risks, our team on the ground remain committed to providing detailed and accurate reporting of developments in the Tamil homeland, across the island and around the world, as well as providing expert analysis and insight from the Tamil point of view
