     1        notice?
     2        A.  I did not say -- it is an improvement notice, not a
     3        prohibition notice.
     4
     5   Q.   What was that for?
     6        A.  I cannot remember what it was for.  Some of them are
     7        for quite small things.  I seem to remember that was a food
     8        safety one.  It depends more on the attitude of the local
     9        authority, to be honest, whether they are served or not.
    10
    11   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  When you say it depends upon the attitude of
    12        the local authority, do you mean that means one authority
    13        will serve a notice, another will be content with an
    14        assurance that something will be changed?
    15        A.  Exactly.
    16
    17   Q.   It will not think the notice is necessary?
    18        A.  That is exactly right.
    19
    20   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Do you want to take a break now, to take
    21        stock of where you are?
    22
    23   MS. STEEL:   I do not know.  The thing is I have questions which
    24        are not very well-collated.
    25
    26   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  What is your prognosis at the moment, doing
    27        the best you can?
    28
    29   MS. STEEL:   I do not think I will finish tonight.  Apart from
    30        that, I do not really know, to be honest.
    31
    32   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  How long would you like?
    33
    34   MS. STEEL:   Now?
    35
    36   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes.
    37
    38   MS. STEEL:   I do not know how much -- it is quite difficult
    39        having to look everything up and find the right place, and
    40        things like that.
    41
    42   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I understand that but, if I may say so, you
    43        clipped along quite steadily this morning, but you have had
    44        some longer gaps this afternoon.  I would rather you took a
    45        rather longer break to see if you could get back into this
    46        morning's stride, rather than just take five minutes.  But
    47        you must say.  I cannot make the decision for you.
    48
    49   MS. STEEL:   I can try to get a batch collated.  The thing is
    50        finding a reference between each question and then ----- 
    51 
    52   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  We will break off until 3 o'clock.  We will 
    53        resume then.
    54
    55                       (Short Adjournment)
    56
    57   MS. STEEL:  At the meetings of the Health and Safety Task Force,
    58        was the death of Mark Hopkins discussed?
    59        A.  I am sure that it was, but going back to my point
    60        earlier, the Task Force might not have met up to three
