Sri Lanka has declared to have done everything "humanly possible" since July 2012 to implement the National Plan of Action on implementing the recommendations of the Lessons Learnt and Reconciliation Commission (LLRC).
Lalith Weeratunga, secretary to President Mahinda Rajapaksa, briefed the United Nations in Geneva on Tuesday on 'progress in the reconciliation process in Sri Lanka'.
Weeratunga's explanations come in the wake of international criticism over Sri Lanka's lack of progress.

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
