Very well, continue.

"High profile ANC/SACP members had to operate covertly in the RSA and establish an infrastructure for the establishment of underground structures, DLBs, once again for the purpose of weapons stockpiling, safehouses, transit facilities, as well as a communications network.  The plan was that the armed struggle would fall under the direct internal command of the MK commanders who were present in the country.
		Within the ANC itself it was a secret movement.  It was only in selected groups.  Only selected groups were aware of it and acted supportively for this.  The initiative for this came from the SACP.  And one could draw the golden thread from the involvement of individuals within operation Vula, that all of them were registered members of the SACP and/or that they were considered for action within the SACP."
