Experiment on the Brain Time Paradox

It has been found experimentally that when a person is asked to move or make a decision the electrical activity of their brain forms a pattern of activity known as a Readiness Potential. What cannot be explained is that the reported time of each decision was consistently a short period (some tenths of a second) after the Readiness Potential appeared. The problem is there does not seem to be enough time for free-will to take place! Could a deeper understanding of ‘time’ explain this?
