SRILANKA, Dec. 4 -- If the Government submits a proposal to increase Government expenditure by 300 to 500 billion rupees in the Parliament, considering the current crisis situation, the Opposition will provide full co-operation and support, Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) MP Dr. Harsha de Silva told Parliament yesterday (3).
