6 but I do not know.
7
8 Q. It is still not done at all the stores, is it?
9 A. Recycling of corrugated?
10
11 Q. Yes.
12 A. It is done with certain outer cases, but not
13 necessarily with all outer cases.
14
15 Q. I got the impression from some document, I might have to
16 find it, that it was something like one-third of the stores
17 are participating in this so-called Sadler project,
18 recycling corrugated?
19 A. That just concerns french fry cartons.
20
21 Q. French fry corrugated?
22 A. The outer cases.
23
24 Q. So a third of the stores are involved in that?

28 Q. Something like a third?
29 A. I do not know.

31 Q. To save time we do not have to go to the document, but it
32 is Volume V page 694B which I will just show you. It is
33 the environmental activity as of 1st June 1993. It is your
34 own document disclosed in the case. It says on it: "Since
35 February 1991, some restaurants have been saving clean, dry
36 and undamaged McFry corrugated cardboard cases and
37 returning them flat into the distribution centre at Hemel
38 Hempstead via a distribution service. 160 restaurants are
39 currently on the scheme which is named the Sadler
40 project" -----

52 written -----

55
56 MR. MORRIS: Yes, that they were saying that 60 per cent of all
