Google Groups : Humanitarian Information Centre Sri Lanka (HIC): "The Government of Sri Lanka (GoSL) has introduced new regulations and procedures for International NGOs (INGOs). Under previous arrangements, all INGOs (and local NGOs as well), fell under the provisions of the Voluntary Social Services Organizations (registration and Supervision) Act (VSSOA). Accordingly, INGOs were required to register with the NGO Secretariat under the Ministry of Social Services. INGOs were also required to submit all reports and an annual audited financial statement to the same Secretariat. In turn, the Secretariat assisted INGOs in such areas as obtaining visas for foreign staff. Most INGOs also had Memorandums of Understanding with line ministries depending on their main sectors of activities.
