CHAIRPERSON
I would just like to explain that even if there are people who even today wish to make statements, we do have statement-takers here.  In activity room No 1 and can take statements from people.  This is an ongoing process and not something that stops with the hearings today.
 Mrs Nlophe, can you hear all right?  Can you hear me. We would like to thank you very much for coming and joining us this afternoon.  Before you give evidence, and you will be led by Yasmin Sooka, I would ask you please to take the oath.
