Day 265 - 19 Jun 96 - Page 65


     
     1        A.  I do not recall, unless I can look at my notes.
     2
     3   MR. JUSTICE BELL:   I really think we are back where we were
     4        before we had the five minute break.  When we came back you
     5        followed my indication and you did get to challenging and I
     6        would like you to keep on doing that because every time we
     7        slip back into what he recalls and does not recall we get
     8        the same answer, and there is no point in going over it
     9        again.
    10
    11   MR. MORRIS:  You put what you wrote down on that day because
    12        that is what your employers wanted to hear?
    13        A.  That is not correct.
    14
    15   Q.   That is why you put a double star against my name. "Aha! At
    16        last we have Mr. Morris"?
    17        A.   Not at all.
    18
    19   Q.   Well, there is no other reason for putting a double star
    20        against my name?
    21        A.   I have a habit of marking something for future
    22        recollection.
    23
    24   Q.   For future recollection.  So as soon as you heard me say my
    25        name was Dave, you thought "Aha!  This could be important
    26        for future recollection"?
    27        A.   If it was the first occasion I had met you, yes.  I
    28        knew it would be important.
    29
    30   Q.   Because you had been told that I was a key person in the
    31        antiMcDonald's campaign and you had to find out information
    32        about me?
    33        A.  You and others.
    34
    35   Q.   Me and others, but you had not seen me before?
    36        A.   If that was the first occasion, yes it would.
    37
    38   Q.   And you could not verify any of that on that page
    39        subsequently, could you?
    40
    41   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I am sorry.  I am going to ask the witness
    42        not to answer that question because it must be about the
    43        twelfth time, not necessarily in those terms but asking
    44        questions of the same thing.  You must move on.  You are
    45        through the meetings, putting the challenges where they
    46        relate to the issues which I attempted to summarize just
    47        before our break, and I am obviously particularly
    48        interested, I am interested in your motives.  I am
    49        interested in the question of consent, but when you are
    50        cross-examining I am particularly interested in any 
    51        references to you which you might surmise Mr. Rampton was 
    52        going to rely on as indicating directly or indirectly, your 
    53        involvement in the publication of the leaflet complained
    54        of.  So whatever else you leave on one side, you must
    55        grapple with that.
    56
    57   MR. MORRIS:  You do not remember if you talked to me after that
    58        meeting, do you?
    59        A.   I do not recall, sir.
