1
2 Q. When you were on maternity leave, what dates were they?
3 A. My daughter was born on 21st March 1985, so I was off
4 for six months after that, so I would have returned -----
5
6 Q. 1985?
7 A. Yes. I would have returned early in 1986. I cannot
8 remember the exact date that he visited after my maternity
9 leave. I do not have the diaries. I could not tell you
10 the dates.
11
12 Q. Right. Six months after March 1985 is September or
13 October 1985?
14 A. That is right.
15
16 Q. So you were at work from the winter of 85/86 onwards?
17 A. That is right, in a part-time capacity.
18
19 Q. Part-time?
20 A. Part-time.
21
22 Q. So you may not have been there when he visited in 86?
23 A. I certainly was. His visits always coincided with my
24 being there. I was there five days a week, but for lesser
25 hours than I had been, following maternity leave. But
26 I cannot remember the precise dates that he visited the
27 office, I am sorry.
28
29 Q. OK. Do you remember if he made a visit in 87, or you do
30 not remember?
31 A. Well, I left early in 87, so no, again, I could not
32 tell you.
33
34 Q. You cannot remember?
35 A. That is nine years ago.
36
37 Q. OK. At the last visit which -- do you remember any visits
38 in 86 specifically where he said, "I am just going to check
39 this or check that", or if it was just a routine part of
40 the routine?
41 A. The routine, as he had always visited us on a routine
42 basis. No, there was nothing untoward.
43
44 Q. You cannot remember anything he specifically said in a
45 visit in 1986?
46 A. No, I cannot.
47
48 Q. Right. You said sometimes he looked at some aspects of the
49 wages payroll and sometimes at other aspects?
50 A. No. He always looked at the same aspects, but he
51 looked at differing employees; perhaps, you know, he either
52 did a random check or he did a specific check.
53
54 Q. So he might have looked at -- one visit he might have just
55 looked at salaried employees and gone into that, and
56 another visit he might have looked at the crew and gone
57 into that?
58 A. That is right.
59
60 Q. You cannot remember in 1986 which one he specifically
