     1        wanted all along.
     2
     3   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes.  All I am doing is rather than just
     4        saying, yes, that is sufficient, I am giving you an
     5        opportunity to have a look at it.  If you come back and say
     6        there is more which you want, I would like you to apply any
     7        such application to some particular issue in the case which
     8        you think it may help on, not just say scheduling
     9        generally, but some particular issue within the scheduling,
    10        short staffing, long hours, general issue.
    11
    12   MS. STEEL:   There is one question which, perhaps, it might be
    13        worth the Plaintiffs looking into and answering, which is
    14        that this just says "Drive-through" on the front, and
    15        whether or not there is a similar document for the
    16        non-drive-through stores.
    17
    18   MR. RAMPTON:  Yes.  That is perfectly fair question.  I should
    19        have mentioned that.  The one we happen to be supplied with
    20        happens to be marked "drive-through", though I understand
    21        (though I will have this checked) that the principles are
    22        precisely the same for every different kind of store.  If
    23        there are any material differences in the documents used --
    24        I say material differences -- in what one might call
    25        pedestrian restaurants, then, of course, we will disclose
    26        them, but I am instructed -----
    27
    28   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  It seems to me it is worth making that check
    29        because one's initial reaction might be:  Why put either
    30        drive-through or pedestrian on it if it is the same
    31        whatever it is?  But if you are going to ......
    32
    33   MR. RAMPTON:  I will check it, my Lord.
    34
    35   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I think it would be better to check it and
    36        then we will know where we are.
    37
    38   MR. RAMPTON:  Mrs. Brinley-Codd is fairly confident that the
    39        answer I have given is the correct one.
    40
    41        My Lord, I have no further applications in relation to
    42        anything, I do not think, leaving only the question of
    43        scheduling.
    44
    45   MR. RAMPTON:  I do not know if the Defendants have any other
    46        substantive applications?
    47
    48   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I am looking at my own check list which I
    49        made out.
    50 
    51   MR. RAMPTON:  If not, then I will begin on scheduling. 
    52 
    53   MR. MORRIS:  I do have some matters that might be worth clearing
    54        up before the lunch break.
    55
    56   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Press ahead with yours and then we will come
    57        to scheduling.  Are they substantive applications or just
    58        matter you want to raise?
    59
    60   MR. MORRIS:  I do not think any of them are substantive, no.  A
