Day 273 - 03 Jul 96 - Page 39
1 That short phrase.
2
3 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Yes.
4
5 MR. RAMPTON: Which I understand Ms. Steel to dispute, and the
6 basis upon which it is said that Mr. Bishop should come
7 back, as I understood it, was that there was some
8 discrepancy between that and the notes of Mrs. Tiller
9 and/or the report of Michelle Hooker. I have looked--
10
11 MS. STEEL: I think it is Michelle Hooker.
12
13 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Which page?
14
15 MR. RAMPTON: Michelle Hooker, my Lord, is -- well, I have not
16 got the page.
17
18 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Is Mrs. Tiller 207A?
19
20 MS. STEEL: Mrs Brinley-Codd will tell your Lordship that.
21
22 MS. STEEL: I think it is actually 207 that the relevant quote
23 is on.
24
25 MR. RAMPTON: 207I?
26
27 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Yes, let me have a look.
28
29 MR. RAMPTON: I could not find anything which was inconsistent
30 with what Mr. Bishop had written. I am very likely to miss
31 something. I often do, but I could not find it. (Pause)
32
33 MR. RAMPTON: My Lord, all one can say is Miss Hooker does not
34 actually express what Mr. Bishop says.
35
36 MS. STEEL: She says that I am going print four thousand
37 leaflets for the picket of the Bank of England.
38
39 MR. RAMPTON: I missed it. Yes. I thought I had.
40
41 MR. JUSTICE BELL: It is towards the bottom.
42
43 MR. RAMPTON: Yes, I missed it.
44
45 MR. JUSTICE BELL: It is three paragraphs up.
46
47 MR. RAMPTON: My Lord, can I suggest this, it seems an awful
48 nonsense to bring Mr. Bishop back just for this. I would
49 not normally ask to do this but it may very well be if Mr.
50 Bishop is asked out of Court, "Do you accept you may have
51 misunderstood what the leaflets referred to" he will say,
52 yes.
53
54 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Well, the way I left it was if you were
55 prepared to make a formal admission that he may have
56 misunderstood what the leaflets were and that they may have
57 been for -- I think Ms. Steel I thought put it -- an IMF
58 protest.
59
60 MS. STEEL: That is the same thing as the Bank of England.
