1 these cases.
2 A. Sufficient accuracy is plus or minus one, but they now
3 have more advanced equipment which is easily obtainable
4 which is accurate to 10 per cent.
5
6 Q. Here we come on the next page 17 to what I take to be the
7 cleaning sheet; is that right?
8 A. That is a check on the cleaning. It is not the full
9 clean schedule.
10
11 MR. JUSTICE BELL: When you say 10 per cent, do you mean a tenth
12 of a degree?
13 A. Yes, a tenth of a degree, yes.
14
15 MR. RAMPTON: Here we have a whole lot of areas which have to
16 be, I take it, inspected to see that they are cleaned; is
17 that right?
18 A. That is right.
19
20 Q. There is a column saying "Checked by Jarretts staff"?
21 A. Yes.
22
23 Q. First of all, can I ask, is that a comprehensive list of
24 necessary cleaning or not?
25 A. It is comprehensive enough as a check but it is not the
26 complete schedule, if I could distinguish between the
27 schedule which is merely a list of things to clean and how
28 to clean them and how often to clean them which is a very
29 bulky document, and that is for the instruction and use of
30 the cleaners and their supervisors. This is a check by the
31 Jarrett supervisor to indicate that the job has been done
32 correctly.
33
34 Q. It may vary, of course, from one piece of equipment or one
35 piece of the structure to another, but what sort of things,
36 generally, are they looking for when they do these cleaning
37 checks?

39 or the wall or the floor or any other item in the
40 department is, in fact, clean, that is, free from any
41 residues.
42
43 Q. This is a visual check?
44 A. A visual check.
45
46 Q. We notice, for example, against "sterilizers" that the man
47 or woman who checked the sterilizers found that they were
48 not washed out?
49 A. Yes.
50
51 Q. At what stage in the operation would that check take place?
52 A. That would be a check at the end of the ---
53
54 Q. Shift?
55 A. -- shift, yes. The end of production cleaning.
56
57 Q. Would that be related to the earlier comment we saw called
58 "cleaning contractor"?
59 A. Yes. This detailed check is what it purports to be.
60 The overall comment in the previous, in document 14, is the
