1
MISS STEEL: Something indicating what percentage was used at
2 the time; something indicating the percentage that was
made from recycled content at the time. Presumably, they
3 have to find them to be able to work out the calculations
anyway.
4
MR. JUSTICE BELL: Maybe. If in the summary which one gets one
5 has a summary of the source of the information, then we
can see what, if any, further discovery is required in
6 relation to that.
7 MR. MORRIS: Maybe it would be useful if the documents that are
perused to make the summary were attached to the summary.
8
MR. JUSTICE BELL: If that can be done; I do not know what it
9 involves looking at. You have heard what the argument is?
A. It is perfectly clear to me.
10
MR. JUSTICE BELL: We have figures in the right-hand column.
11 It all looked nice and simple, if the figures in the
right-hand column were correct. Depending on how much one
12 was interested, one could go back to the earlier columns
and where you got those figures from to check them. You
13 are suggesting they are not accurate. You have given your
reasons for that.
14
If you and Mr. Kouchoukos come up with a common view of
15 what the accurate figure is, you will obviously have to
provide, if that is going to carry any weight, some kind
16 of source documentation to show where you have your new
view from, or your new figure from.
17
I am not suggesting at the moment that that needs vast
18 paper work. I suggest what you do is put in the hands of
Barlows what you think is necessary to support the new
19 view, whatever it is. Then, if the defendants say they
should have more documentation, I can decide whether that
20 should be so or not.
21 MR. RAMPTON: Is that a relatively simple undertaking?
A. Yes. This is a very simple thing. I understand it
22 completely.
23 MR. JUSTICE BELL: I assume you are not going to look at
thousands of sheets of paper or we will not get something
24 in the next week or two?
A. No. All the information at hand.
25
MR. RAMPTON: I do not want Miss Steel and Mr. Morris to think
26 that once again that anything is being covered up or
anything. In what sort of form do you expect the
27 information will be?
A. We will have documents at Perseco related to the
28 purchasing volumes at that point in time. We will also
have documentation of, for instance, napkins. We will
29 able to demonstrate that one or two suppliers use recycle
napkins as part of their specification.

Q. As his Lordship said, it would be helpful when you prepare
