2 Q. I see. So one must not assume that the total for children
3 out of national advertising was 14 per cent?
4 A. No. It would be a portion: approximately a third to a
5 half of residuals.
6
7 MR. JUSTICE BELL: But then you added a six per cent in from
8 somewhere?
9
10 MR. RAMPTON: My Lord, that was because Mr. Green said that the
11 total for the country -- there is a split between national
12 and local advertising.
13
14 MR. JUSTICE BELL: I understand that, but where did the
15 six per cent come from?
16
17 MR. RAMPTON: I made the mistake, my Lord, of adding 11 to 3.
18
19 MR. JUSTICE BELL: I followed that.
20
21 MR. RAMPTON: Then I took it away from the figure of 20 which
22 Mr. Green gave for the total, national and local added
23 together.
24
25 MR. JUSTICE BELL: But there is a local amount on adult
26 advertising, as well.
27
28 THE WITNESS: That is correct.
29
30 MR. JUSTICE BELL (To the witness) What is the six per cent?
31 A. Well, in general, from my recollection, about 20 per
32 cent of all dollars that are spent are spent against the
33 children's category. So that would be -- you would have to
34 add what you were spending locally.
35
36 Q. So, on national advertising, we have somewhere between 11
37 and 14?
38 A. That is correct.
39
40 Q. On the local, you must have a much higher percentage than
41 that spent on children if, at the end of the day, it is
42 going to bring the children up to 20 per cent of the whole?
43 A. Yes. It would be a bit higher on a local basis back in
44 1991.
45
46 Q. Yes.
47 A. I believe that the figures-----
48
49 Q. Can I put it this way: if, overall, national and local is
50 about 20 per cent and national is somewhere between 11 and
51 14 per cent, local must be comfortably above 20 per cent?
52 A. I do not want to confuse you.
53
54 Q. Or it would not back the overall up, would it?
55 A. I am recalling these from memory. Probably, the
56 statement I submitted would be the best way to look at the
57 dollars. The 20 per cent that I am talking about is
58 television advertising only. The dollars which are in my
59 statement are ones that I can rely on.
