MR SWANEPOEL
The matters we are concerned with here are matters which have been filed timeously and which have not been amended before that, and they are before the Committee as they stand at the moment.
	Now from the applications that I am concerned with, and that is relating to the two events, the burning of Mr Msizi's house and the abduction and murder and attempted murder of Sibongile and her sister, the only two applications with respect, that conform to the requirement of the Act before the Honourable Committee, are the applications of Jabu Nyete, which is found on page 166 of volume two and the Patrick Mkwebe, known as Meneer, which is found on page 237 of volume 2.
	There is an important aspect which I would like to point out to the Committee.  Jabu's application is a perfect example of how an application should look.  It specifies the deeds, his evidence is perfectly in line with what he specified and it was deposed to and signed on the 10th of May 1997, as was each and every other application that we heard.
	Now the excuse for irregularities and indiscrepancies was that they were in a hurry, but the fact of the matter is that person who deposed to his application on exactly the same day, had the time and took the effort to inform the Committee and to inform the TRC as a whole, the Investigative Unit, of exactly who he dealt with, exactly what his offence was.  There was no logical reason for the other people not to do the same.
	The person known as Meneer is a classic example of someone who took the liberty of using wide language initially and narrowing it down to specific offences, and the offences of course were mentioned by his representative counsel to the Committee, they also include attempted murder and not only arson as stated on the list that was supplied to the Committee.
	The other people with respect, could never have on the evidence, contemplated the deeds and the events that they testified to when they deposed to these applications.  It is clear from the evidence, and I will go through them one by one if the Committee requests me to ....(intervention)
