CHAIRPERSON
Yes, before we proceed I just want to mention something for everybody to hear.  We are making use of interpreters.  I don't know which languages are required other than English, but I'm sure there are.  I would advise those who are not eloquent enough in the English language to use the facilities and listen to the hearing in the language of their choice.  If there is any problem especially from those applicants or members of the families of the victims or the victims themselves, please draw my attention to it.  I trust that their legal representatives will do so.
	This is an unusual application.  It has been made a bit difficult because certain facts weren't put before us in good time.  I have had a talk to the respective representatives and explained to them what the proceedings and procedures are intended to achieve and I asked them to explain it to the various parties.  I trust that they have done so.
	Mr van Rensburg, just for the record, would you tell us what the basis for any opposition, if at all, there is before we proceed so that the applicants can deal with it if necessary?
