CHAIRPERSON
I think today has been a very special day for us.   We have heard the stories of women ranging from 1960 right up until very very recently.   And the sadness is that in this particular province, the violence still continues.  And women still bear the effect of that violence.   The women who have come here today have come here very - with so much humility and with so much strength, that they put some of us to shame and all we can say is that the experience has been a very very moving one.   And it is on this kind of story that we have built South Africa.  It was yesterday's todays which have made the future we have today and we remember those who did not come back, those who have died, and those whose stories have not, in fact, been told.   Many people thought the Spuiker van Wyk's, the General van den Berg's, they never thought that this day would come when they might have to be accountable for what they have done.   The day has arrived, and the time is now for them to come forward.  And if they don't do it, someone else will come forward to tell the story of what they have done.   We would like to thank all of you who have shared this day with us.  We know it has been a long one, but we are very grateful for it and very humbled.  We thank you for having participated in it with us, and for all those who have contributed to making it happen.   We now end this session of the special hearing on women, and we would like to call upon those women who have not yet come forward to do so, and we remember those who have died and we would ask you to observe a special moment of silence before we end the day's proceedings.
