     1        A.  OK.
     2
     3   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Would it be fair to say that the United
     4        States is very much the lion's share, that Canada and
     5        Mexico would be very, very much smaller than the United
     6        States?
     7        A.  Yes.
     8
     9   Q.   In proportion?
    10        A.  That is correct.
    11
    12   MR. MORRIS:  I have not got your statement in the right order,
    13        but if you quickly go to your second supplementary
    14        statement, No. 3 ----
    15
    16   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  The second supplementary?  It is tab 4.
    17
    18   MR. MORRIS:  Yes, tab 4.
    19        A.  Yes.

    21   Q.   Page 2, the second paragraph in the middle it refers to
    22        Mr. McDonald developed by Tysons.  "It was developed in
    23        order to improve the yield of boneless meat"?
    24        A.  Yes.
    25
    26   Q.   Is that correct?
    27        A.  That is correct.
    28
    29   Q.   If we move on -- I am sorry for dodging about like this --
    30        I think it is your first statement, internal page 3.
    31        A.  I am sorry, can I just ask you a question?  We went
    32        from world production of beef now to chickens.
    33
    34   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes.
    35
    36   MR. MORRIS:  We are dodging around.
    37
    38   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  It is tidying up, so we are going to a number
    39        of different topics, not necessarily related to each
    40        other.  Look at your first statement at tab 2 please.
    41
    42   MR. MORRIS:  It should be page 35 in the bundle.
    43        A.  Yes.
    44
    45   Q.   You have got that.  At the bottom of the first paragraph,
    46        the top paragraph, yes, the last sentence, "The overriding
    47        concern when raising chickens or pigs is to get them to a
    48        specified weight as quickly and efficiently as possible,
    49        and obviously the more comfortable their surroundings the
    50        more they eat, the quicker they reach the desired weight." 
    51        You confirm that? 
    52        A.  I am not going to confirm anything that is not here, 
    53        yes.
    54
    55   Q.   I am just saying I have to do it because ----
    56        A.  Yes.
    57
    58   Q.   --- otherwise it has not been said.  One point on the next
    59        page.  It says at the bottom of paragraph 9 that bruised
    60        meat will not be purchased, so it is counter-productive to
