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

(a)

a body corporate, every director and officer of such body corporate; or

(b)

is a partnership, every partner of such partnership, shall be guilty of that offence:

Provided that a director or an officer of a body corporate or a partner of a partnership, as the case may be, shall not be deemed to be guilty of such offence, if he or she proves to the satisfaction of the court that such offence was committed without his knowledge or that he or she exercised all due diligence as was necessary, to prevent the commission of such offence.
