MOKOTEDI MPSHE
Thank you Mr Chairman.  Mr Chairman and Honourable Members of the Committee, may I with your consent be allowed to distance myself from the fray that is already existing and attempt to address issues that may be of importance and perhaps salvage the Committee from the quagmire that exist and I will do so by addressing the Act in particular and relate the evidence to the requirements of the Act.  I am going to restrict myself to the stipulations of the Act and not the factual quagmire that exists.
	Mr Chairman, I will first start by addressing the aspect of full disclosure.  Mr Chairman, may I state that it is important that we differentiate between credibility of a deponent or of the applicant as well as stating all relevant facts to the omission or to the act.
	The argument that is advanced Mr Chairman, by all parties so far, particularly the opposition party, is based on the credibility of the applicant.  I do not think the Act states that you can only be granted amnesty if you are a credible witness.
