     1   Q.   Also the corrugated packaging started increasing in
     2        recycled content as well?
     3        A.  Yes, but that is -- yes.
     4
     5   Q.   Was that because when Perseco was established that was one
     6        of the -- what is the word? -- aims or charges you were
     7        given?
     8        A.  Yes.
     9
    10   Q.   You are aware of McDonald's attitude.  You said something
    11        about their attitude earlier on.  That attitude, did it
    12        apply to all their other suppliers as well as far as you
    13        know?
    14        A.  I could not tell you.  I would assume so.
    15
    16   Q.   Did there seem to be ----
    17        A.  You would have to ask somebody from McDonald's that who
    18        is responsible for food supplies.
    19
    20   Q.   You asked in this survey about the percentage that was
    21        post-industrial or post-consumer, so the exact percentages
    22        of post-consumer and post-industrial, say, for the UK,
    23        those figures you have given for 1991 of total recycled
    24        content, then you went through from your own experience of
    25        what the PI and PC content were of that recycled content?
    26        A.  We tried to establish it.
    27
    28   Q.   Is that because they answered the questionnaire like all
    29        the other countries when that information was gathered in
    30        that way?
    31        A.  We tried to gather that information if it was known and
    32        if they could indicate it to us.  I think we have
    33        answered ----
    34
    35   Q.   Was a chart done to that effect?  I know we do not have a
    36        copy of it here.
    37        A.  No.  No, the chart never show differences between
    38        post-industrial and post-consumer.
    39
    40   Q.   So these forms that were filled in, these ones here on the
    41        next page of your appendix?
    42        A.  Yes.
    43
    44   Q.   You still have those forms, do you, for each separate
    45        country?
    46        A.  For each separate supplier.
    47
    48   Q.   For each separate DC?  Is it DC?
    49        A.  Supplier.  I send these to a supplier, yes.
    50 
    51   Q.   It has not got the recycled percentage.  I do not see where 
    52        the question comes about -- if Mr. Rampton stops answering 
    53        my question.
    54
    55   MR. RAMPTON:  My Lord, Mr. Morris is not helping the witness to
    56        answer the question.  With respect, he should draw the
    57        witness's attention to the words on page 8 "Against
    58        recycled perc" which is short for "percentage" I take it,
    59        and then perhaps the witness can answer the question.
