CHAIRPERSON
The matter stood down for a while after lunch in order to give an opportunity to Adv Du Plessis who had previously represented the applicant, Mr Bellingan in these proceedings, to come to the venue and to deal with the question of his withdrawal from the matter.
	Mr Du Plessis is present at this stage and he has had a discussion with the Panel in chambers.  We have explained to him the gist of the proceedings this morning which has left some unanswered questions around his withdrawal from the proceedings.   He has indicated that he would wish to take the opportunity to actually deal with it and to formally withdraw from the matter.  Mr Du Plessis?
