CHAIRPERSON
This meeting ought to have started not later than 10 o'clock.  We regret the delay that has been caused, and even though there might be some explanation as to why there was this delay, nevertheless we are particularly unhappy and disappointed that such a delay should be allowed to occur.  We will be taking steps to ensure that an attempt is made on behalf of the people who are responsible for bringing applicants to these hearings cooperate more effectively tomorrow and the day after and the day after until we finish these hearings.
	The Committee that is going to hear the application this morning of Mr Ngcobo comprises of myself as Chairman, Mr Wynand Malan a senior attorney and Advocate Motata on my right.
	Will counsel announce themselves?
