MR BLACK
Well I am told not, and Captain Molapo - he is present, I'm not sure what the steps he's taken as far as the informer is concerned, but I've understood that he has made those ...  Could Captain Molapo perhaps indicate what steps, he is present.
	Then as far as the operation is concerned, the South African Defence Force played a supportive role in the execution of this operation and during the course of the operation a certain Captain was wounded.  I have received a report from the South African Defence Force.  Perhaps I could hand copies in for the sake of the Committee and to my learned friends.  
	The Committee will note from a fax which forms part of the bundle, a fax dated 17 June to Captain Imrie a number of questions were put to the members of the Defence Force, a copy of that fax is part of the bundle.  	In brief I was in touch with Brigadier Slabbert. He advises that the officer who was in charge as appears from his report, a certain Lt Colonel Merholz, who was in charge of this particular operation, is no longer - he has been killed in a car accident, and they, the Defence Force, are unable to throw further light on the background as to how they became involved in this operation.  And the particular Captain who is mentioned in the papers as having been wounded is a British citizen and is now living in England.  	As you will note from the report of the Defence Force they said they are unable to establish who specifically authorised the SADF participation.
	In the circumstances I submit that everything, all interested parties and implicated parties have been notified.
	I have spoken to my learned friends, Advocate Visser who represents applicants listed as B1 to B13 and Mr Rossouw of Rooth and Wessels represents the first applicant, Mr Sehlwana, and subject to the approval of the Committee it has been agreed between the legal representatives that the application of Mr Sehlwana first be heard, and Mr Sehlwana I understand will testify in Northern Sotho and Mr Rossouw will lead his evidence, from Rooth and Wessels.
