MR HATTINGH
Mr Chairman, may I just put on record that the manner in which I'm conducting the re-examination is not the very normal way of doing it, firstly because of my belated entry into this matter and secondly, this is not a Court of law, there's no form of appeal after this and in fact this Committee can make its own rules for the conduct of this hearing.  That's clearly set out in the Act and I believe Section 30, if I'm correct.  So it's on that basis that I believe that there are relevant issues and it's relevant to bring it to the attention of this Committee.  This Committee has the final say about the future of this applicant and if anything is relevant I think it should be submitted, even though it may not be the normal way of doing it, and secondly, I have absolutely no doubt, should that be a case of new evidence, I have no doubt that this Committee will then allow the other parties the opportunity of re-cross-examining the witness on these aspects.  On that basis I would like to proceed, thank you.
