Day 172 - 12 Oct 95 - Page 16

2 MR. RAMPTON: My Lord, I do not know whether your Lordship wants
3 me to say anything about that now?
4
5 MR. JUSTICE BELL: No, not at the moment.
6
7 MR. RAMPTON: I will have something to say.
8
9 MR. JUSTICE BELL: As I said before, the mere fact that I put
10 new statements in the bundle does not mean to say that
11 I will give leave for the witnesses to be called. Even if
12 the parties are agreed, I may say no, it is too late.
13 But I will have to rule on that at some stage; and if there
14 is a difference between the parties as to the matter I will
15 hear argument before I rule.
16
17 MR. MORRIS: I think the last thing that I have got is, I have
18 got a better copy of Keith Baker's statement, which
19 I believe was one of the ones which you said you could not
20 read.
21
22 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Yes.
23
24 MR. MORRIS: A copy of the original is actually quite -- you
25 could not read it because of the handwriting. (Handed) If
26 that is readable now, then that will save having to type it
27 out, but otherwise -----
28
29 MR. JUSTICE BELL: I can read that.
30
31 MR. MORRIS: Thank you. I think there is one more point. I am
32 not sure.
33
34 MS. STEEL: Unfortunately, I have not brought my note with me,
35 but when I was looking through the things from
36 Mr. Fairgrieve at the weekend, I am pretty sure the survey
37 that has been disclosed is not the right one, the questions
38 for the first survey, the Taylor Nelson one, because
39 Mr. Fairgrieve said in his evidence that it was done over
40 the telephone and the survey was all about showing people
41 cards and things like that; and I could not get the
42 questions to tally up with the results in the charts. So
43 I do not know whether this was something that ought to be
44 looked into before -----
45
46 MR. JUSTICE BELL: What I suggest you do -- I mean,
47 Mr. Fairgrieve has gone off again and it is not suggested
48 he be called in the immediate future at the moment.
49 I think you should write a letter to Barlow's saying just
50 why you think you have not got what you want. Then they
51 can consider that. I will deal with it if I can be of any
52 assistance one way or the other.
53
54 MS. STEEL: Right. Well, it is the Taylor Nelson one.
55
56 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Put it in a letter.
57
58 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Apart from anything else, if you have your
59 notes about it at home, you will probably be able to make
60 your position much clearer if you write it down.
