Day 095 - 02 Mar 95 - Page 41


     
     1   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  You say there is a similar directive but
     2        related to performance-based inspection systems?
     3        A.  Yes.
     4
     5   Q.   That is the one we should be looking at to relate to the
     6        Tysons' printout we saw.
     7
     8   MR. RAMPTON:  It might save time in re-examination if your
     9        Lordship could ask him what this does relate to.
    10
    11   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes.  Can you explain that because at the
    12        moment I am unclear?
    13        A.  This one?  This is the corrective process to -- when
    14        something goes wrong, when an inspector is inspecting the
    15        plant there is a process if he finds some deficiencies,
    16        this is the process that will guide him through.  So when
    17        he tags, let us say, a major deficiency, he tags the
    18        product and informs management of it.  The next day the
    19        management is responsible to provide the inspector with a
    20        plan of corrective action as to how they are going to solve
    21        the problems.  Not all the problems can be solved
    22        immediately, such as, let us say, it is a light bulb that
    23        goes out in the middle of production, it does not affect
    24        the product, the wholesomeness of the product, then there
    25        is corrective action.  They say: "OK, by tomorrow morning
    26        during sanitation we will replace that light bulb."  That
    27        is the process that this corrective action and directive
    28        guide us to.
    29
    30   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Who did this come from, Mr. Morris?  Who is
    31        Mr. Jollio?
    32
    33   MR. MORRIS:  Well, I was told he was the director.  I told him
    34        it was for a court case.
    35
    36   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I suggest we leave it there.  What I suggest
    37        you might do is find whether there is a directive which
    38        would fit the description which Dr. Gomez Gonzalez has just
    39        given and, if you do have ready contact with someone from
    40        the FIS you might be able to get them in a letter in
    41        relation to which you could give a Civil Evidence Act
    42        notice some explanation of the Tysons' printouts we were
    43        looking at the other day. .  You do not have to do it
    44        straightaway.  I will put this at the moment at the back of
    45        tab 6 of supplementary Volume V.
    46
    47   MR. MORRIS:  Yes.  I feel that the thing is self-explanatory,
    48        but I will go through page 8 and ask if there is anything
    49        further.
    50 
    51   MR. RAMPTON:  I know your Lordship is perhaps as a little 
    52        troubled by the same that I am because I do not understand 
    53        it fully.  I am not willing for it to be left in the air,
    54        though Mr. Morris may fear the result.  I will ask
    55        Dr. Gomez Gonzalez when he has finished his evidence if he
    56        will produce whatever is needed to produce an explanation
    57        in documentary form.  It might be in the form of a
    58        statement.
    59
    60   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  That may be, but the reason I addressed
