Day 106 - 23 Mar 95 - Page 36
1 MR. JUSTICE BELL (To the witness): Have you seen those?
2 A. I have seen those, my Lord, very recently.
3
4 MR. RAMPTON: One moves to Sun Valley and one finds at tab 8 a
5 variety of documents but, for Mr. North's purposes, a large
6 number of microbiological results -- I say a large number,
7 about four or five sheets -- that are relevant under the
8 heading "Laboratory analysis" from 1989 through but not
9 continuously to 1993, I think.
10
11 Then in tab 8A there are what I have called mostly, at any
12 rate, the French documents showing temperatures which may
13 be important from Mr. North's point of view and also
14 laboratory analyses in tab 8B -----
15
16 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Can we just pause a moment?
17
18 MR. RAMPTON: Those in tab 8A are documents sent to McDonald's
19 on a weekly and monthly basis.
20
21 MR. JUSTICE BELL (To the witness): Have you seen tab 8,
22 Mr. North?
23 A. I do not recall them, no.
24
25 MR. RAMPTON: I say this for Mr. North's benefit, are sent by
26 Cargill in France to McDonald's in England.
27
28 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Have you seen tab 8A? No?
29
30 MR. RAMPTON: This is chicken. Then in tab 8B one finds a
31 variety of internal French documents, including as the last
32 document in that tab some microbiological tests done by the
33 local departmental laboratory, the local government
34 laboratory in that area of France.
35
36 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Have you seen those, Mr. North?
37 A. Sorry?
38
39 Q. Tab 8B.
40 A. They do not look familiar, I am afraid, my Lord, but
41 I can offer you that the range I have seen, I think, would
42 be sufficient.
43
44 Q. Yes.
45
46 MR. RAMPTON: I will just complete the errand, if I may?
47
48 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Yes, let us identify what -----
49
50 MR. RAMPTON: Tab 9 is the Sun Valley microbiological standards,
51 their own internal document, for both raw and finished
52 product. At tab 10 are what we understand to be the EC
53 guidelines.
54
55 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Have you seen tab 9?
56 A. I have seen and read.
57
58 Q. You have seen those?
59 A. Yes.
