     2   MR. MORRIS:  Yes.  If I can just summarise the position, it
     3        seems to me it is a unit producing scheduling guide and
     4        chart and the non-unit producing hours chart and guide, but
     5        we are hoping -----
     6
     7   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  You have mentioned that a clue to
     8        Mr. Atkinson.  The point is I do not want to spend time
     9        being taken through the document while you suggest there
    10        might be this or that.  If the situation is, if you spend
    11        quarter of an hour with Mr. Atkinson, either you would find
    12        there is not something missing or you would find there is
    13        something missing which McDonald's are prepared to provide,
    14        or you will at least isolate what the issue is so that you
    15        can take it more shortly with me.
    16
    17   MR. MORRIS:  I only had a chance at the weekend which the first
    18        time I had a chance to look at it and we may ask
    19        Mr. Tindale about it, but it looks as though we might not
    20        have the full document.
    21
    22   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  You can pursue it with someone else.  I mean,
    23        let us see where we get to on that.
    24
    25   MR. MORRIS:  Can I just say, there are a couple of other
    26        things:  You asked me to contact Mr. Logan, Michael Logan,
    27        about specific people.  I do not know whether we want to
    28        leave this until when it comes up in cross-examination.  I
    29        have various details of individuals as examples of how Bath
    30        store used performance reviews or did them badly or delayed
    31        them and also used scheduling in a discriminatory way,
    32        etc.
    33
    34        It could be we could leave it to cross-examination.  I have
    35        not written them out separately.  I have them as those
    36        notes.  I was going to put them to the witness.  If we
    37        could leave it until then and then we could apply for the
    38        documents after ---
    39
    40   MR. RAMPTON:  My Lord -----
    41
    42   MR. MORRIS:  -- I mean, the witness might agree and, therefore,
    43        no need probably for the document -----
    44
    45   MR. RAMPTON:  My Lord, it is not satisfactory, in my respectful
    46        submission, to leave it to cross-examination.  The names
    47        and details ought to be in a statement.  Mr. Richards, in
    48        fact, is here.  He is listed to give evidence at or after 2
    49        o'clock.  He ought to be given the information now so that
    50        he can think about it and be told which part of Mr. Logan's 
    51        statement it relates to so that he can think about it 
    52        before he gives evidence. 
    53
    54   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  How long are your notes on it?
    55
    56   MR. MORRIS:  They are not long,
    57
    58   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  If you wrote them out in a sort of fairly
    59        simple paragraph by paragraph, not worrying about your
    60        English -----
