Day 063 - 07 Dec 94 - Page 17
1 Q. The latter?
2 A. So based on the percentage of recycled content,
3 I worked out those figures.
4
5 Q. You did that for the individual ---
6 A. Packaging item.
7
8 Q. -- packaging item?
9 A. Yes.
10
11 Q. When you worked out the main figure for the total used, was
12 that worked out by how much each item weighed times by how
13 ever many were used?
14 A. Yes.
15
16 Q. So would that not include off-cuts and things like that
17 when the packaging is actually being made?
18 A. No.
19
20 Q. It would not include that?
21 A. No.
22
23 Q. On the document that was served the other day, the front
24 page of which says "Composition of 'Top Colour'"?
25 A. Yes.
26
27 Q. The second page of that.
28 A. Yes.
29
30 Q. Again right at the bottom: "Currently all suppliers have
31 to oblige to a minimum recycled content requirement of
32 50 per cent in their corrugated containers. This
33 corresponds Europe-wide with at least 900,000 kilogrammes
34 recycled material"?
35 A. Yes.
36
37 Q. The 900,000 kilograms, that again was worked out on the
38 basis of it being 50 per cent of the total?
39 A. At least, yes, a minimum of 50 per cent was required at
40 that time. I think for 1991 we did not include that in the
41 whole material usage study.
42
43 Q. So that is the little chart, the tiny little chart?
44 A. Yes.
45
46 Q. CVE 1. So, the 900 is basically the half?
47 A. Is half of 1.8 million.

49 MR. JUSTICE BELL: I am just thinking about how to organise
50 things that, is all. Have you some estimate of how long
51 the bits and pieces, as Mr. Morris called them, are likely
52 to take?
53
54 MS. STEEL: We do not feel we have much more than an hour at
55 the most, although I do not even know that long
56 personally. Perhaps maybe we could have a five or ten
57 minute break now or something?
58
59 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Have the ten minute break now so that you can
60 organise just what you do have to ask on further.
