Hon Chairperson, in respect of the first part of the question, the cost of all National Treasury officials' commuting for government business between Pretoria and Parliament in Cape Town is R5 223 732,30 for the period from 1 April to 31 October 2011, at an average cost of some R32 648 per week.
In response to the second part of the question, I have not commissioned a study. However, this matter has been explored by government on two different occasions over the past 15 years. It has, in fact, been a subject of debate and consideration on many occasions since the Union of South Africa was formed in 1910. Thank you.
