     1        reason that I have mentioned before, is that on our part it
     2        involves a considerable body of rebuttal evidence.  I am
     3        not willing to call rebuttal in this particular field from
     4        all over the country unless I am confident that the
     5        Defendants' witnesses are actually going to come and give
     6        evidence in court.  My Lord, I will not develop that now.
     7
     8   MS. STEEL:  If Mr. Rampton has some reason for supposing that
     9        our witnesses are not going to be turning up in court, then
    10        I think that he should give what that reason is.
    11
    12   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  What I will do is I will wait and hear what
    13        Mr. Rampton says on Monday and make any ruling I am asked
    14        to make or rule on any question I am asked to deal with.
    15
    16        Unless there is any further we can usefully discuss,
    17        I think it is better you go away and get on particularly
    18        with deciding what your position is in relation to the BSE
    19        matter and getting your list in relation to discovery
    20        done.  We will resume at 10.30 on Monday morning.  If there
    21        are any other authorities, I would like them to be got to
    22        me on Friday sometime.
    23
    24   MR. RAMPTON:  Authorities on what topic, my Lord?
    25
    26   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  In relation to anything, for instance, like
    27        power which I have mentioned.
    28
    29   MR. RAMPTON:  On discovery, yes, we will do that.
    30
    31   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Thank you.
