Day 141 - 23 Jun 95 - Page 03
1 MR. STANLEY RICHARD STEIN, recalled
2 Cross-examined by the Defendants, continued.
3
4 MS. STEEL: One thing to clear up: if you get pink volume XIV,
5 please?
6 A. Yes, I have it.
7
8 Q. Turn to tab 94, please?
9 A. Yes.
10
11 Q. You did say yesterday that McDonald's prepared this summary
12 from extracts from their documents -- "their" being TPF&C;
13 that is correct, is it not?
14 A. What I have tried to do several times a couple of days
15 ago, yesterday, and I will try to do again today, that
16 these are TPF&C's documents and words that we produced from
17 the TPF&C report. That is what I have been trying to get
18 across as clearly as possible.
19
20 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Yes. I think it is quite apparent that is
21 what you have said, Mr. Stein, but now you are going to be
22 asked some more questions about it.
23
24 MS. STEEL: TPF&C did not hand you this document, did they?
25 A. Yes, they did.
26
27 Q. In this form?
28 A. Yes, they did.
29
30 Q. Why did you say yesterday that McDonald's prepared it?
31 A. If you will look at all the testimony surrounding that,
32 I was trying to articulate that we produced the document
33 from the TPF&C reports. If you take a look, I tried to go
34 back to that several times, and there are many people
35 interjecting various things. I have tried as best as
36 I can; and if I have caused some confusion, I apologise,
37 but I have attempted to articulate it as well as I can in
38 English and tried to avoid confusion because of my American
39 English.
40
41 Q. You have said as clear as day yesterday that McDonald's
42 prepared this summary.
43 A. If you will go on, I think, my Lordship, when we were
44 trying to get to the bottom of it, and I reviewed the
45 transcript last night, my Lord -- could I see the
46 transcript, so that I am not stabbing in the dark here?
47
48 MR. RAMPTON: This is rather unfair. It is, again, fairly
49 selective. I, too, have read the transcript, so I do know
50 what I am talking about. For example -----
51
52 MR. JUSTICE BELL: No, Mr. Rampton, I am sorry. This is a
53 cross-examination. By all means in re-examination -- and
54 I know you have tried to help the court by keeping
55 re-examination short ---
56
57 MR. RAMPTON: Yes, I do.
58
59 MR. JUSTICE BELL: -- but I do feel that, with a matter like
60 this, that is the moment to do it.
