1 for those reasons. You go on to say at the end of that
2 paragraph: "Because the United Kingdom has the only
3 polystyrene recycling plant in Europe this enables us to
4 use our preferred packaging of polystyrene and to recycle
5 it."
6 A. Right.
7
8 Q. That is a joke, is it not?
9 A. No, it is not a joke.
10
11 Q. You are only recycling from five stores?
12 A. Well, our aim is to develop that. We have said that
13 clearly in our statement.
14
15 Q. You have gone nowhere with that for the last two years or
16 so?
17 A. That is correct.
18
19 Q. No expansion?
20 A. For the reasons I gave you.
21
22 Q. So have we anything other than your word for these
23 expansion plans?
24 A. You can ask Perseco next week.
25
26 Q. The evidence you gave yesterday did not seem to indicate
27 that it was particularly likely within the foreseeable
28 future that you were going to be expanding?
29 A. No, it did not, but I was not asked directly, were they
30 expanding?
31
32 Q. Are they then?
33 A. They will be, yes.
34
35 Q. When?
36 A. Ask Perseco next week. I do not have precise details.
37
38 Q. You are saying they will be. What do you know about it?
39 A. I know that they are almost ready to expand the
40 programme.
41
42 Q. "Almost ready"?
43 A. Yes.
44
45 Q. That is what they have said to you?
46 A. That is what they have said to me. Perseco have
47 precise details of when they are likely to do that.
48
49 Q. You did not say to them, "when"?
50 A. No, they said in the future. That was good enough.
51
52 Q. You are not concerned about when?
53 A. That was a major step forward from where they were when
54 I last asked them to expand, and they said they could not;
55 they say they are now almost ready.
56
57 MR. MORRIS: A final question on the CFC subject before we close
58 it: You mentioned refrigeration; do you still use CFCs in
59 refrigeration?
60 A. In an original plant, yes.
