MR BERGER
Chairperson, I submit that 29(5) is a general Section which does not deal with questions of privilege and questions of prejudice.   Section 31(3) and (4) are specific Sections which deal with questions of privilege.   My submission is that Section 29(5) has to be read subject to 31(3) and (4).  Chairperson, finally one has to have regard to what was intended by Section 29, it was intended to assist the Commission with regard to investigations and hearings, it was intended to be a hearing out of the public domain in camera, for what purpose, why did the legislature see fit to have secret hearings, hearings in camera?  There had to be a purpose for that and the purpose was, I submit, so that people could come along and without any fear, disclose certain facts.
