COLOMBO PREFACE THIS is the twelfth issue of the Statistical Abstract of Ceylon. The present volume is intended to continue the work of the previous issues in providing in one convenient volume important and comprehensive summary of statistics. The Tables presented in the last issue have been revised and brought up to date. Current monthly data for many of the Tables or series shown in this issue are to be found in the Quarterly Bulletins of Statistics issued by this Department. This Department wishes to express its gratitude to Government officers and members of private business institutions who have readily furnished most of the information published. The future issues of this publication will, as has been done in this issue, treat the subjects included still more comprehensively and will have their scope and coverage extended from time to time so as to include added information as they become available. With this end in view this Department will welcome sugges­ tions from all quarters and the undersigned will be glad to hear of any errors that may have passed unnoticed. N. MANICKA IDAIKKADAR, Department of Census and Statistics. Director of Census and Statistics. P. O. Box 563, Colombo, CEYLON, June 14, I960. «-—J. N. E 10666—1X60 (6/60) STATISTICAL ABSTRACT OF CEYLON I960 GENERAL NOTES 1. Area covered. All statistics relate to the Dominion of Ceylon. 2. Years covered. Except where it is stated to the contrary all statistics are for the calendar years ended 31 December. 3. Symbols employed. The following symbols have been used throughout the Abstract :' .. = not available — = nil or negligible 4. The series for certain data in a given table are not often immediately comparable. In some cases, a substantive change has occurred in a particular series, in others some of the figures have been compiled on a different base. In such cases attention is drawn by a horizontal line across the column ; in addition, a footnote indicates the nature of the difference. 5. Revisions. Some of the figures included in this Abstract are regarded by Departments as provisional only and may be revised subsequently. 6. Rounding of figures. Where necessary, each figure has been rounded off to the nearest final digit. For this reason there may be in some tables an apparent slight discrepancy between the sum of the constituent items and the total as shown. 7. Wherever information has not been given in respect of any parti­ cular Table it is because information was not available at the time of going to the press, or because the subject matter of this particular Table was under review.

    TITLE OF THESIS TAMIL MINORITY PROBLEM IN SRI LANKA IN THE LIGHT OF SELF-DETERMINATION AND SOVEREIGNTY OF STATES NAME OF CANDIDATE R. P. Samarasinghe TITLE OF DEGREE Master of Laws (Honours) YEAR OF SUBMISSION 2005 UNIVERSITY University of Western Sydney Parramatta Campus School of Law SUMMARY This thesis analyses the Tamil minority problem in Sri Lanka in the light of Self- Determination and State Sovereignty. The first Chapter gives an introduction. The second Chapter discusses the location, composition and historical background, as it relates to the Tamil minority problem in the country. The third Chapter focuses on the legal issues and principles involved in the exercise of the right of self-determination. The fourth Chapter discusses the principle of self-determination. The fifth Chapter discusses the principle of self-determination in the light of treaty law. Chapter six focuses on State practise with respect to self-determination. The cases of Aaland Island, Katanga, Biafra and Bangladesh are discussed in detail. Chapter seven deals with the specific issue of self-determination in the Sri Lankan context of secession. The chapter tries to ascertain the legal conditions, which would warrant secession. Chapter eight will focuses on the inherent tensions between the two principles of self- determination and the State sovereignty. Chapter nine focuses on the definition of statehood and factors undermining separatists claims to create separate States. Chapter ten evaluates the discussion in the earlier chapters.

  • The Failure of Jennings' Constitutional Experiment In
    ! 3 The Failure of Jennings’ Constitutional Experiment in Ceylon: How ‘Procedural Entrenchment’ led to Constitutional Revolution g Asanga Welikala ! ! Introduction When the United Front (UF)1 won a landslide victory of over a two-thirds majority in Parliament in the general election of May 1970, 2 the stage was set for radical constitutional changes that would signify the end of an era and the beginning of another, or to put it more dramatically: the death of Ceylon and the birth of Sri Lanka. In its election manifesto, the UF had sought a mandate to repeal and replace the constitution under which independence had been granted (known as the Soulbury Constitution) with a republican constitution. The manifesto also indicated that such a sovereign and independent constitution would be drafted and enacted by a Constituent Assembly separate from Parliament, signifying an exercise of popular sovereignty, effecting a complete break with the colonial past. The UF manifesto sought a mandate for these constitutional changes in the following terms: “We seek your mandate to permit the Members of Parliament you elect to function simultaneously as a Constituent Assembly to draft, adopt, and operate a new Constitution. This Constitution will declare Ceylon to be a free, sovereign and independent Republic pledged to realise the objectives of a socialist democracy; and it will also secure fundamental rights and freedoms to all citizens.”3 1 A coalition comprising chiefly of the Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP), and the two main Marxist parties, the Lanka Samasamaja Party (LSSP) and the Communist Party of Ceylon (Moscow Wing). 2 The UF won 115 of the 151 elected parliamentary seats of the last Parliament under the Soulbury Constitution at the general election of 27th May 1970.

  • Application of Link Integrity Techniques from Hypermedia to the Semantic Web
    UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science Department of Electronics and Computer Science A mini-thesis submitted for transfer from MPhil to PhD Supervisor: Prof. Wendy Hall and Dr Les Carr Examiner: Dr Nick Gibbins Application of Link Integrity techniques from Hypermedia to the Semantic Web by Rob Vesse February 10, 2011 UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON ABSTRACT FACULTY OF ENGINEERING AND APPLIED SCIENCE DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMPUTER SCIENCE A mini-thesis submitted for transfer from MPhil to PhD by Rob Vesse As the Web of Linked Data expands it will become increasingly important to preserve data and links such that the data remains available and usable. In this work I present a method for locating linked data to preserve which functions even when the URI the user wishes to preserve does not resolve (i.e. is broken/not RDF) and an application for monitoring and preserving the data. This work is based upon the principle of adapting ideas from hypermedia link integrity in order to apply them to the Semantic Web.

  • Basu: Commentary on the Constitution of India /Jenning and Tambish
    REVIEWS COMMENTARY ON THE CONSTITUTION OF INDIA (2d ed.). By Durga Das Basu. Calcutta: S. C. Sarkar & Sons, Ltd., 1951. Pp. lxxii, 1063. 30 rupees. THE DOMINION OF CEYLON. THE DEVELOPMENT OF ITS LAWS AND CON- STITUTION (Vol. 7 of the series, THE BRITISH COMMONWEALTH). By Sir Ivor Jennings and H. W. Tambiah. London: Stevens & Sons, Ltd., 1952. Pp. xvi, 319. $9.35. THE actual drafting of the Constitution of the Republic of India occupied three years. A Constituent Assembly to draw up a constitution was first convened in December, 1946, and its members (numbering three hundred in all after the withdrawal of Pakistan's representatives) did not finally reach agreement until November, 1949, the new Constitution coming into force on January 26, 1950. The constitution that they agreed upon, perhaps in con- sequence of these exhaustive deliberations, is elaborate and prolix. It is easily the lengthiest constitutional instrument ever drafted-395 articles, plus 9 schedules, the whole instrument, in the official version published by the Government of India Press, running to 254 pages. It must also be the most eclectic constitutional document that has been adopted: its articles echo the phrases of the constitutions of many countries, for the Indian Constitu- tion-makers have borrowed copiously, and perhaps not always discriminat- ingly, from the constitutions of many countries, particularly the English- speaking federations-the United States, Canada, and Australia. In this sense, the new Indian Constitution tends to parallel the Weimar Constitution and other post-1918 European constitutions in that the drafters have sought, by the dry light of reason and by assiduous culling of the positive law texts, to construct themselves a constitution.
