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 ---

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 -----
