Deputy Speaker, I'm really surprised by this question from Mr Maynier, because he knows full well that I held a press conference at the Union Buildings on 6 August on the document he released on 2 August, where I indicated comprehensively government's response to the spurious allegations that were made on that particular document which was widely reported in the media. I indicated there and I am repeating it now that the business of the National Conventional Arms Control Committee, NCACC, is done in accordance with the law and the Constitution. We are accountable to Cabinet, Parliament and also to the United Nations.
The following day, on 7 August, I was with Tim Modise on the After 8 Debate, where I addressed this issue with the general public. Mr Maynier also had the opportunity of fielding questions and, caller after caller, he was condemned for what he had said. So, I don't know what statement he wants me to make right now.
I also came before Parliament and the Portfolio Committee on Defence and Military Veterans, where the hon member was also present. We spent almost two and half hours in that meeting. So, I don't know what the basis of this question is, more than what I have indicated already.
