NO QUESTIONS BY MR COETZEE

CHAIRPERSON: Mr Kahanovitz.

MR KAHANOVITZ: One.

MR KAHANOVITZ: What was your salary at the Park Lane Hotel in your capacity as General Manager?

DANIEL F DU TOIT BURGER: Approximately about R3 000.

MR KAHANOVITZ: Mr Chair, this is not a question to the witness, but if you want to know the details of all the regions and their geographic locations, those appear at paragraphs 397 and 398 of the TRC's final report, that's Exhibit D.  What is omitted from that report, that report deals with geographical regions, Regions 1 to 8, possibly Mr Basson will help us when he testifies, but there were in addition two further regions, Region 9 and Region 10.  They were not geographical regions, but administrative regions.  My understanding was that Region 10 was a financial support administrative function in the CCB that was called Region 10 and Region 9 we're still seeking clarification, but if ...

CHAIRPERSON: ...(indistinct) the funny region.

MR KAHANOVITZ: The funny region, but it's not a - it wasn't a geographical region.

CHAIRPERSON: Yes, thank you Mr Kahanovitz.

NO QUESTIONS BY MS COLERIDGE

MR MARTINI: Sorry Chairperson before we adjourn, just a procedural thing since we've been dealing with a lot of amnesia, we've heard this word amnesia, we were promised photographs by Ms Coleridge and I was promised a statement by Mr Kahanovitz, they seem to have forgotten in a short space of time.

CHAIRPERSON: Ms Coleridge about the photographs.  Ms Coleridge did mention it to me this morning about the photographs and I have also forgotten to raise it, but she says there is ...

MS COLERIDGE: It's at the police archives Chairperson, which I'll have to get from them.

CHAIRPERSON: This was actually yesterday.  The photographs are at the police archives, the originals and Mr Kilian who is working on this matter for the Commission, I spoke to him yesterday, he said he's going to get them and he will get them - we'll get them to the legal representatives as soon as possible, but I don't know how long that is.

MS COLERIDGE: Thank you Chairperson.

MR MARTINI: Thanks Chairperson.

CHAIRPERSON: And then there's that statement, the other statement of Mr van Zyl.

MR MARTINI: Thanks.

CHAIRPERSON: Thank you.  Would it be convenient to start at 9 o'clock tomorrow?  Thank you.

MR MARTINI: Sorry Chairperson.  Tomorrow I've expressed my excuses at 2 o'clock to be excused, I'm just not sure if we are adjourning at 2 or not?

MS COLERIDGE: Chairperson, we're adjourning, we've agreed that we're adjourning at 4 tomorrow.

CHAIRPERSON: Thank you.

MR MARTINI: May I be excused Chairperson from 2 o'
clock?

CHAIRPERSON: Yes, certainly.

MR MARTINI: Thank you.

CHAIRPERSON: And you will ask somebody to just look after the rights of your client and then if anything extremely prejudicial arises, we will give you an opportunity to revisit it at the next hearing.

MR MARTINI: Thank you Chairperson.

CHAIRPERSON: We'll then adjourn until tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock at the same venue.  Thank you.  And sorry, Mr Burger, that concludes your testimony, you may stand down.
