Deputy Speaker, the ad hoc committee asks the House to consider extending the deadline for the committee to report to 31 March 2008. I must emphasise the fact that the committee has not at this stage formed any opinion regarding the process and the matter.
As the chairperson of the ad hoc committee, I must thank all members, professionals and staff, who made this preliminary report possible. I hope you will have a happy festive season with your families and come back next year so that we can finalise what we have started. I thank you.
