1 deal with it now.
2
3 MR. JUSTICE BELL: We have had several references to it but no
4 one has referred me to where it is.
5
6 MR. RAMPTON: It is appendix 1 to the supplementary statement.
7
8 MS. STEEL: The problem is we were handed another copy of it
9 this morning which is a different copy, so that is
10 confusing matters.
11
12 MR. RAMPTON: We apologise for trying to be helpful.
13
14 MS. STEEL: The point is, it is a different leaflet so it is
15 just...
16
17 MR. MORRIS: The one we were handed this morning is actually a
18 different leaflet with different text and heading. So, we
19 ought to work from the original one.
20
21 MS. STEEL: With the statement.
22
23 MR. MORRIS: That was collected on 25th April 1990.

45 A. Yes.

47 Q. As you see, it does say "collected on 25th April 1990",
48 which was after you had already had private investigators
49 infiltrating London Greenpeace for 6 or 7 months.
50
51 MR. JUSTICE BELL: I see it says that on the leaflet, and no
52 doubt so can Mr. Preston. Let me just find the reference
53 to it in his statement.
54
55 MR. MORRIS: It is in paragraph 3, line 4.
56
57 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Do you think it may have been around the end
58 of April that you first saw what I will call the aims and
