The Farlam Commission of Inquiry's hearings into the circumstances surrounding last year's violence and deaths in Marikana continue in Pretoria on Thursday.
Evidence leaders were expected to continue questioning the police about the strategies they used during the unrest.
On Wednesday, senior evidence leader Geoff Budlender SC, raised "serious concerns" about the evidence supplied by the police to the commission. He said representatives of the police had been informed about the concerns.
Ishmael Semenya SC, for the police, indicated that the evidence leaders' concerns would be addressed in writing.
Senior policeman Lt-Col Duncan Scott was questioned about the sequence of the police plan to curb the violent, strike-related protests. Scott played a pivotal role in drafting the police plan that was to be used to attempt to disperse and disarm the striking mineworkers. It became known as the "Scott plan".
The police shot dead 34 people, almost all of them striking miners, while trying to disperse and disarm them in Marikana on August 16, 2012. Ten people, including two police officers and two security guards, were killed in the preceding week.
President Jacob Zuma established the commission shortly after the unrest.
