     1        What I will say is we will resume in this case at either
     2        quarter past 2 or so soon thereafter as I have disposed of
     3        the other matter.

     7                      DR. NEAL BARNARD, Recalled
     8
     9   MR. RAMPTON:  Having reflected upon the matter over the
    10        adjournment, my cross-examination of Dr. Barnard is
    11        complete.
    12
    13   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Do you want a bit of time to think about the
    14        re-examination?
    15
    16   MS. STEEL:  Yes.
    17
    18   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  How long do you think you need to take?
    19        I am not asking you to make it as short as you think you
    20        might do it in.  Give me a realistic estimate.
    21
    22   MS. STEEL:  Do you mean of the break or how long we think we
    23        will be in re-examination?
    24
    25   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  No.  How long the break is.
    26
    27   MS. STEEL:  A quarter of an hour.  Would that be all right?
    28
    29   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  That would certainly be all right.
    30
    31   MR. RAMPTON:  It may save time eventually if it were a little
    32        longer.
    33
    34   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  That is what I was trying to say.  You tell
    35        me how much you need.  Do not worry about whether I want
    36        to keep it as short as possible.
    37
    38   MS. STEEL:  I do not really know, to be honest.
    39
    40   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I will say a quarter to three which gives
    41        you half an hour.  I will ask Mr. Styles if he will come
    42        out at about twenty two and you can tell him if you need
    43        longer.  The real constraint on time this afternoon is
    44        that you do not take so long there is risk of not
    45        finishing Dr. Barnard.  I have to leave at about half past
    46        four.
    47
    48   MS. STEEL:  I do not think that will be a problem.
    49
    50   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I want to say a little more about what we 
    51        were saying before lunch, not to invite debate, but so you 
    52        can take away what I say and show it to anyone whose 
    53        advice you may be seeking.
    54
    55   MR. MORRIS:  Before we break, Dr. Barnard could be advised then
    56        to get his flight booked for tomorrow?
    57
    58   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes.  You will be free to go to tomorrow.
    59        By the end of this afternoon you will be released from
    60        this court, Dr. Barnard.
