     4   Q.   What about other packaging?
     5        A.  Cups could come from a number of sources in Europe.
     6
     7   Q.   Where do they come from then?
     8        A.  Some cups are produced in the UK, some are produced in
     9        Finland, Scandinavia.  We did have a supplier in Spain at
    10        one time.  I am not sure whether we still do because I am
    11        not responsible there.
    12
    13   Q.   Before we leave cups, when you were talking about cups, are
    14        you talking about the paper cups or the foam cups as well?
    15        A.  Paper.
    16
    17   Q.   What about the foam cups?
    18        A.  The foam cups where they are used -- they are not used
    19        everywhere -- are sourced in the UK.
    20
    21   Q.   All of them?
    22        A.  There is only one supplier for Europe, that is in the
    23        UK.
    24
    25   Q.   What other countries are they supplied to?
    26        A.  I cannot be absolutely certain.  I know that Germany
    27        and Austria do not take them.  Holland, I do not think
    28        takes them.  That is all I am aware of.
    29
    30   Q.   So, you are aware they go to other countries in any event?
    31        A.  Oh, yes, many other countries.
    32
    33   Q.   OK.  You were going to move on to ---
    34        A.  Paper bags.
    35
    36   Q.   -- paper bags, yes?
    37        A.  In the main are sourced in Scotland for Europe and
    38        France for Europe.
    39
    40   Q.   That is where they are made?
    41        A.  That is where they are produced, yes.
    42
    43   Q.   Is that so for all the paper products, that they are
    44        sourced mainly from Scotland, or is that just the paper
    45        bags?
    46        A.  That is paper bags, only paper bags.
    47
    48   Q.   Only paper bags, right.  So, what is the source of the
    49        other paper products used by McDonald's in your kind of
    50        region? 
    51        A.  Well, I have talked about cups and I have talked about 
    52        bags and I have talked about cartons.  What others are you 
    53        referring to?
    54
    55   Q.   Paper wraps?
    56        A.  Paper wraps are sourced in France and Germany for
    57        Europe.
    58
    59   Q.   They go all over Europe from France and Germany?
    60        A.  Yes.
