2 Q. You named Paul Gravett, Helen Steel, Dave Morris, Jane,
3 Andrew Clarke. That was put to you again by Mr. Morris in
4 cross-examination, and he added, "And there were some other
5 regulars, what you call regulars", and you said, "Yes."
6
7 Then Mr. Morris put this question to you: "The people that
8 only attended a handful of meetings or less than a handful
9 of meetings while you were going, in that period you were
10 going, they would not have been able to have any influence
11 on what was going on generally; do you agree with that",
12 and your answer was: "No, I do not agree with that. I am
13 not quite sure what you mean by 'handful' to begin with;
14 but, secondly, there were obviously some people who had had
15 an association with the group for a long time and whose
16 views were respected, and those people were generally
17 listened to should they attend."
18
19 Can I ask you whether you are able, at this distance of
20 time, to say who you meant by such people?
21 A. Mr. Morris would be an example of one of those people
22 whose attendances were less frequent but whose opinion was
23 obviously valued in the group.
24
25 MR. RAMPTON: Thank you.
26
27 MS. STEEL: I have just realised I forgot to ask a question.
28 Is it possible to ask it.
29
30 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Yes. Let Mr. Rampton finish.
31
32 MR. RAMPTON: That is all, my Lord.
33
34 Further cross-examined by the Defendants
35
36 MS. STEEL: (To the witness) You worked out of Kings offices
37 itself, rather than being freelance, so you would have
38 known Frances Tiller who was working there as a personal
39 assistant to the managing director; yes?
40 A. She was there, yes, towards the end of my time there.
41
42 Q. Do you recollect her attending any of the meetings which
43 you attended?
44 A. No, I do not.
45
46 MS. STEEL: Thank you.
47
48 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Yes. Thank you, Mr. Pocklington.

59 Mr. Russell, please?
