3 MR. ATKINSON: I was going to say, does your Lordship just want
4 to take it as read?
5
6 MR. JUSTICE BELL: I will take it as read, yes. What was the
7 other matter, Mr. Morris, you wanted to raise?
8
9 MR. MORRIS: There was the FSIS Directive regarding the US
10 labelling of imported beef, in particular when the
11 packaging has been taken off it. If I can find it -----
12
13 MR. JUSTICE BELL: It is -----
14
15 MR. MORRIS: I have got it down as a Civil Evidence Act notice.
16 We do not have to actually read it all out.
17
18 MR. JUSTICE BELL: I do not think you have to read it at all.
19 It has been put to witnesses.
20
21 MR. MORRIS: Yes. I just wanted to make a point that it has
22 been -----
23
24 MR. JUSTICE BELL: I have got it in somewhere. I would leave it
25 there if I were you.
26
27 MR. MORRIS: Yes, OK then. Can I say, that is the directive of
28 number dated 7.20.94. It was sent by the USDA Food Safety
29 and Inspection Service. I think that is our complete
30 environment case except for Jean Carriere for next Monday;
31 Peter Heller who we are still considering whether to call
32 him or not and Anne Link, who is down for next week as
33 well, and Sue Bramford. She is booked in for a later
34 date. I cannot remember which date she is booked in for.
35 In fact, also we are considering whether we need to call
36 Jim Ratter in the light of Mr. Rampton's kind offer to
37 allow us to give a Civil Evidence Act notice on his
38 statement.
39
40 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Make up your mind about that as soon as you
41 can.
42
43 MR. MORRIS: Yes. He is away, of course, at the moment.
44
45 MR. JUSTICE BELL: All right. Shall we break off there until
46 Monday morning?
47
48 MR. MORRIS: Yes.
49
50 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Is there anything else?
51
52 MR. ATKINSON: No, my Lord.
53
54 MR. JUSTICE BELL: We will resume at 10.30 on Monday with
55 Dr. Carriere.
