Day 250 - 15 May 96 - Page 04
1 MR. MORRIS: Just in case we refer to anything.
2
3 MS. STEEL: I am not intending to at this stage.
4
5 MR. JUSTICE BELL: No. Yes?
6
7 MS. STEEL: If we could get out the counterclaim bundle, I will
8 just check, No. 2.
9
10 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Which do you want?
11
12 MS. STEEL: Bundle No. 2, counterclaim 2. The one with the
13 pink and white label?
14 A. Yes.
15
16 Q. Incidentally, while we have the counterclaim bundles out,
17 I have a note of various pages which are blanked out, parts
18 blanked out, and whole pages which are blanked out which go
19 through the publication and counterclaim bundles, and I am
20 sure I know what the response is going to be but we want to
21 formally apply just so that is all covered.
22
23 MR. JUSTICE BELL: You are not to be deterred from implying by
24 any previous decision, because I have to approach each
25 application on its own merits.
26
27 MS. STEEL: Well, the...
28
29 MR. JUSTICE BELL: It may be the same decision, it may be not.
30 I think what you have to do, if you want to do a number of
31 them together, is make a list of them in advance and then
32 I will look at them overnight some time, because I will
33 have to refamiliarise myself with the documents in
34 question.
35
36 MS. STEEL: OK.
37
38 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Tell me what it is which you say should lead
39 me to suppose there is something relevant there, or what it
40 is you say which means that the blanking out makes it
41 difficult to understand the parts which are left in.
42
43 MS. STEEL: Right.
44
45 MR. RAMPTON: My Lord, I too, may I say this, would need notice
46 because I did not do these bundles myself, Mr. Atkinson
47 did. Obviously, he would have to respond.
48
49 MR. JUSTICE BELL: He is not, very sensibly, always here.
50
51 MR. RAMPTON: No, no. So I would have to refer to him to find
52 out in relation to any particular document what the reason
53 was.
54
55 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Yes.
56
57 MS. STEEL: OK. I will do that at some stage. If we could
58 turn to tab 89 there is a fax that has been sent to you?
59 A. Yes.
