CHAIRPERSON
Yes, do carry on.
MR VISSER
"The major objectives of Operation Vula were to relocate senior and middle-level leaders from the ANC external leadership into South Africa to create a nation-wide underground network to co-ordinate and support a general insurrection against the apartheid State and to penetrate the South African governmental and security structures for the purposes of intelligence collection and covert disruption.  	But for Vula to succeed it had to create an underground organisation far more sophisticated, secure and secretive than the ANC and its military wing, Umkhonto weSizwe had been able to achieve to that point in the armed struggle.  In addition, it had to create or obtain a secure means of real time communication between the external leadership at the ANC headquarters in Lusaka (Zambia) and the Vula operational command inside the country.
			Its existing communications system with internal underground operatives, consisted of a combination of one-time inscription pads, air flight couriers, cross-border smuggling messages etc."
Now Mr Chairman, if you will allow me to confuse you even a little further, from the Internet there is a document available, which can be down-loaded.  It is called "Talking to Vula" and it is by a Mr Tim Jenkin.  He was a gentleman who lived in England and who developed and perfected this one-time encryptic pads and the communication system which evolved through telephone modems talking to computers, which allowed instant same time access, both from South African, Lusaka and England.
	Now it's an instructive document to show how it evolved.  And if you are at all interested, Chairperson, it is available on the Internet as I stated, under the heading "Talking to Vula".  We have a copy thereof, which again we can make available to you.  We don't believe it really is more than of interest value to you, but of course it is available if you want it.
