Mr Mpshe, you are correct, our procedural guidelines are guidelines.  I realise that you have been taken by surprise that evidence is being led at a stage when the witness had already been led, but in the circumstances that we are confronted with here, I am prepared to allow Mr Rossouw to put such questions as he wishes to this witness.  Mr Mpshe, you may have an opportunity to consider your position and if you require time to decide whether you have any questions to put, you may apply for that.
