     2        No doubt he can give bits of evidence on it, but I do not
     3        mind saying in the presence of all the parties that I see
     4        anything he has to contribute as very much outweighed by
     5        all the factual and expert witnesses we have had on one
     6        side or the other.
     7
     8   MR. MORRIS:  Yes.  What I was mainly concentrating on was
     9        company documents that had not been put, or new information
    10        that has come to light, and Mr. Preston may be the last
    11        opportunity to deal with it.
    12
    13   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I raise no objection to you asking, for
    14        instance:  Does he still stand by the first column on page
    15        21 and say "Yes" and then you can draw my attention to the
    16        bits in the evidence here and there to see whether there
    17        holds water or not.  But I interrupted when I did because
    18        I do not see it as being useful asking him about
    19        nutritional quality of ----
    20
    21   MR. MORRIS:  Accepting in as much as it may be in company
    22        documents.
    23
    24   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I do not know.  If you want to seek an
    25        admission, then I suggest you seek it very quickly and
    26        simply and then we can pass on.  It is either made or it is
    27        not made because I have got to reach a conclusion on all
    28        the evidence.
    29
    30   MR. MORRIS:  Right.
    31
    32   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  It will not amount to a formal admission; it
    33        will just be part of the evidence to weigh with all the
    34        rest.
    35
    36   MR. MORRIS:  I will try and get through it fairly quickly.
    37
    38        I do not know if Mr. Preston will be able to get from the
    39        McDonald's Profile Bundle, I do not know what bundle number
    40        it is.
    41
    42   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  It is pink 3.
    43
    44   MR. MORRIS:  I do not know where it was put but it is the Annual
    45        Review of 1993.  It was served a number of ----
    46
    47   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Which year is it?
    48
    49   MR. MORRIS:  1993.
    50 
    51   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  The Annual Report with the family of 3 on the 
    52        front, is that it, or the review one? 
    53
    54   MR. MORRIS:  This is the UK one.
    55
    56   MS. STEEL:   It is actually in one of our supplementary lists.
    57
    58   MR. MORRIS:  I could just read it out if I could ask Mr. Rampton
    59        to verify what I am reading is accurate.
