CHAIRPERSON
Background relating to any other application for amnesty is no concern of this committee and this committee is not going to entertain evidence relating to any other application relating to amnesty.  I think we must confined ourselves to this particular matter.  In so far as any background information is concerned, you may enquire about the organisations to which he has belonged etc, but I do not think it proper at this stage to go around enquiring what the nature of the offence was for which he was sentenced and where and how and matters of that kind.  They're not relevant for present purposes.
