Mr Chairman, I can respond to this, and I 
would like Brig Cronje to tell you exactly on what he based 
his allegation, and I will call him as a witness in that 
regard.
	I firstly want to state that from Brig Cronjes point of
view I was asked to place on record, in respect of the 
second last sentence, where Minister Botha said that it is 
obvious that Mr Cronje and his colleagues have supplied 
false information to the Department of Foreign Affairs, that 
we reserve our rights in that regard.  Mr Cronje will give 
evidence about that now, he will deny it, but that we also 
reserve our rights pertaining to deal or specifically with 
the purpose to deal with this allegation in a different 
forum in this regard.  We regard this as defamatory.
	Now Mr Chairman, is it possible that I could call Brig 
Cronje to explain to the Committee exactly on what he bases 
his evidence?  Thank you.
