Day 088 - 13 Feb 95 - Page 87


     
     1   MR. RAMPTON:  My Lord, this is the first time, I think, that I
     2        have asked for any indulgence in this respect.  I remind
     3        your Lordship that Mr. North who visited various places
     4        during August did not finally produce a report until the
     5        end of January.  We have been waiting for months for the
     6        statement of Ms. Link which has just arrived.  I can think
     7        of other examples if I press my recollection.
     8
     9        Quite honestly, I understand entirely why your Lordship has
    10        been, I would say, quite unduly generous with these
    11        Defendants.  But, that being said, I do ask on this one
    12        occasion for a similar kind of elasticity.  I kept asking
    13        for the report of Mr. North.  It never came until finally
    14        your Lordship made an order, and even then it was a week
    15        late.
    16
    17   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I think over two months with instructing
    18        solicitors as competent as yours is more than is required.
    19        You should call your evidence that week, if you wish to
    20        call any at all.  We will resume at 10.30 on Wednesday
    21        morning.
