Day 255 - 23 May 96 - Page 03
1
2 Q. You do not remember?
3 A. I would remember some of the more serious cases but the
4 small things like students magazines, and things like that,
5 there were a lot of them that came up and I would have
6 difficulty in remembering them myself. I certainty do not
7 remember this one.
8
9 Q. This does not appear to be something which has been taken
10 from a London Greenpeace publication, does it?
11 A. Well, I am afraid I can hardly read it. It has been
12 marked over with highlighter which has almost obliterated
13 it. Some of the comments that I can read are related to
14 things that London Greenpeace referred to in their leaflet.
15
16 Q. Right, but, say, for example, things about rainforests,
17 now, that is obviously mentioned in the London Greenpeace
18 leaflet?
19 A. Yes.
20
21 Q. But it was a criticism that had been made by Norman Myers
22 long before, and other people obviously, London Greenpeace
23 ever came on to the scene in terms of McDonald's?
24 A. Yes. My knowledge of it, certainly I know that Norman
25 Myers was involved before I came into the Company. The
26 Canadian Company dealt with it.
27
28 Q. You were not aware of London Greenpeace until about a year
29 or two after you join the Company?
30 A. The only thing I can go on is that the first letter
31 from Barlows, which was in 1984, which clearly
32 I authorised, so, you know, my knowledge of
33 London Greenpeace probably stems from round about that
34 time.
35
36 Q. Right, and that was a couple of years after you joined the
37 Company?
38 A. About a year.
39
40 Q. About a year. Was it 1993 you joined?
41 A. I joined on 1st January 1993.
42
43 Q. So it is more or less 2 years?
44 A. Whatever, yes.
45
46 MR. MORRIS: I think the letter is dated December 1994?
47 A. In that case, it is about 2 years.
48
49 MS. STEEL: In the index at the front?
50 A. Yes?
51
52 Q. Maybe if you open it, it says: "Date of action: February
53 1986". In relation to this, do you remember anything about
54 that?
55 A. No, I am afraid I do not.
56
57 Q. If you turn to tab 2?
58 A. Yes?
59
60 Q. The Green Capitalists. Do you remember this document?
