PREFACE

This Discussion Paper has been prepared to elicit responses and to serve as a basis for the Commission's deliberations, taking into account any responses received. The views, conclusions and recommendations in this paper are accordingly not to be regarded as the Commission's final views. The paper is published in full so as to provide persons and bodies wishing to comment or make suggestions with sufficient background information to enable them to place focussed submissions before the Commission.

The Commission will assume that respondents agree to the Commission quoting from or referring to comments and attributing comments to respondents, unless representations are marked confidential. Respondents should be aware that the Commission may in any event be required to release information contained in representations under the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, Act 108 of 1996.

Respondents are requested to submit written comments, representations or requests to the Commission by 31 January 2002 at the address appearing on the previous page. The project co-ordinator, Mr H Potgieter, will endeavour to assist you with particular difficulties you may have. Comment already forwarded to the Commission should not be repeated; if they wish, respondents may indicate that they abide by their previous comments, if that is the case.

The project leader responsible for the project is Mr Justice M S Navsa of the Surpreme Court of Appeal. He is also the Chairperson of the project committee appointed to assist the Commission in the investigation. The other members of the project committee are Professor N Moosa (lecturer at the University of the Western Cape), Ms Z Seedat (member of the Commission), Ms F Mahomed (member of Parliament), Dr R A M Salojee (member of the Gauteng Legislature), Mr M S Omar (attorney, Durban), Moulana A A Jeena (United Ulama Council) and Sheikh/Advocate M F Gamieldien (Islamic law consultant).
