MR SHANE
I understand that Mr Chairman, I am not asking you to overlook it, I am asking you to find that on the papers before you, on a balance of probabilities, obviously it can never be beyond reasonable doubt, but I am asking you to find that on the papers before you Mr Chairman, that on a balance of probabilities, his application was with the TRC, was handed to an official of the TRC.  The rest as to what could have happened to it, is pure speculation.  I will concede there is a possibility, there is a possibility that maybe his application didn't get to the hands or into the control of a TRC official, there is that possibility.
	On a balance of probabilities, what you've got before you, you can find that his application was handed in timeously to the TRC or to a TRC official, on a balance of probabilities.
