Official English translation. Where it differs from the Sinhala or Tamil text, the Act itself says which text prevails.

“(2) The order setting aside or refusing to set aside the judgment entered upon default shall accompany the facts upon which it is adjudicated and specify the grounds upon which it is made, and shall be liable to an appeal to the relevant High Court established by
