Day 047 - 07 Nov 94 - Page 29
1
2 MR. JUSTICE BELL: It may not do, at the end of the day.
3
4 MR. RAMPTON: I am not concerned to establish -- I know that
5 Mr. Morris is -- I am not much concerned at present to
6 establish what this particular pressure group or others
7 think about this, that or the other topic. It does not
8 decide this case.
9
10 MR. JUSTICE BELL: That may be, but the reason I assume it has
11 not been disclosed so far is that it only came out three
12 minutes ago, when you asked the question in
13 cross-examination.
14
15 But none of that matters. This is not a case which is all
16 about one tactical advantage or another. If I am to see
17 what one body or another proposes, I would like to see what
18 the ITC, itself, proposes.
19
20 MR. MORRIS: I think it would be helpful. I only knew about it
21 this morning.
22
23 MR. JUSTICE BELL: There is no criticism of you. Let us leave
24 it there for the moment.
25
26 MR. MORRIS: (To the witness) Just from memory, until we get
27 that code, that proposal for amendments, what are the main
28 changes? You are on the ITC, yes?
29 A. I am on the Advertising Advisory Committee.
30
31 Q. Of?
32 A. Of the ITC.
33
34 Q. What are the amendments?
35 A. I am sorry. I do not have them in my head. I have
36 them behind me, but I do not have them in my head.
37 Presumably, until they have been formally produced, I
38 cannot quote from that document.
39
40 MR. JUSTICE BELL: When you say you have them behind you, will
41 you dig it out, please, Mr. Miles? It is a very long route
42 to a short answer. If you read it out, we will get a copy
43 later.
44
45 MR. MORRIS: Can you read out the preamble as well?
46
47 MR. JUSTICE BELL: How long is the preamble?
48 A. The preamble is one page. The proposed rules are a
49 little longer.
50
51 MR. JUSTICE BELL: I think we are just looking at the equivalent
52 of 11 at the moment.
53
54 MR. RAMPTON: Might it be better, if Mr. Miles were willing to
55 surrender it, if we were to adjourn now, and we will get
56 enough copies, if you let us, made for everybody?
57
58 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Yes. Is five minutes going to make any
59 difference as to whether you finish cross examining
60 Mr. Miles today?
