The delegation was taken on an in-loco site visit of the Umlazi storage facilities. Members observed the loading/off-loading bay with vehicular access from the main road. This area was manned by private security. It was made clear that no question papers were stored at this facility - as soon as they arrived they were dispatched. The delegation also inspected the vaults where question papers were housed and processed. It was significant that this was a first visit for the provincial departmental officials.
