9 claims from testimony
"In terms of section, I think it is 20 of the NPA Act, we delegate authority"
"it is a once-off delegation"
"I am interested in whether it is a written delegation of authority"
"it would be fair to expect that if we come across a summons that is signed by anyone but the ID, there would be within IDAC records that delegation to be compliant with sub (7)"
"That is correct"
"is it fair to assume where there is a summons signed by anyone but yourselves that there would be a record of the delegation of that power to that specific person within IDAC"
"a delegation comprising of nine IDAC officials"
"I found plus-minus nine officials who informed me that they were from IDAC"
"They were led by an Indian male who introduced himself as Suneel Bellochun"
