2 A. OK, I have it.
3
4 Q. -- with a picture of some cows on the front?
5 A. Yes, I do see some figures that I do not see in mine.
6
7 Q. Somewhat?
8 A. In that rectangle, I see some numbers in yours.
9
10 Q. It says "Unhappy Meals", I think.

12 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Are you going to refer Dr. Gomez Gonzalez to
13 much of it?
14
15 MS. STEEL: Yes.
16
17 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Do you want him to read it through?
18
19 MS. STEEL: It might be helpful.
20
21 MR. RAMPTON: I do have grave reservations about this
22 procedure. I have said it before, I cannot help that I
23 keep having to say it. This appears to be some kind of
24 newspaper or magazine article. But, I do not know what
25 Dr. Gomez Gonzalez's knowledge is of the ConAgra business

36

44

46 worth saying perhaps), that this article appears in the
47 Defence in this form, that the Defendants say that they
48 will rely upon the statements made in this article. That
49 does not make the same statements made in that article
50 evidence.
51
52 MR. JUSTICE BELL: No. Let us take it step by step. If you
53 take the pages out which go on until you get to -----
54
55 MS. STEEL: It has a little page 75 at the bottom of the last
56 part.
57
58 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Yes, that is right. Stop just before you get
59 to "British side of beef" and glance through that.
60 Ms. Steel is going to ask you some questions. The
