COLOMBO (News1st); Customs Spokesman Seevali Arukgoda said the clearance of imported goods has been delayed due to the work-to-rule campaign launched by Customs officials.

Customs officials launched the trade union action on Tuesday (02), against amendments to be brought to the Customs Ordinance.

President of the Customs Officers' Association Amila Sanjeewa said the trade union members will strike on Thursday (04) and Friday (05) against the proposed Revenue Authority Bill.
