CHAIRPERSON
We have wasted so much time waiting for interested parties and victims, who we were told, were on their way from Kimberley.  I think we have allowed them enough time to reach this venue and we cannot allow this state of affairs to continue indefinitely. I think we should commence our proceedings.
	I would like to place on record that in future when notices are sent out to names on record, and, thereafter, one of the lawyers, my colleagues would like to say something before commencing. I don't know whether that would be Adv Visser or it will be Prof De Koker, but if we can place ourselves on record, please.
