Dear Ian Cameron and MG Mahlaule

I am writing to you as co-chairmen of the Portfolio Committee on Minerals and Petroleum Resources. I wish to access the minutes of the meeting of 18 March at which the SAPS Operation Vala Umgodi and other matters relating to regulation of abandoned mines were discussed. This is for the purpose of research for an article to be published on the subject of regional economic development.

Many thanks for your assistance
regards
Janet Cherry
