Day 265 - 19 Jun 96 - Page 19
1 tomorrow. He could come if I ordered him to come but I do
2 not see the need to do that. I received this morning a
3 copy of the letter which I think was delivered to both of
4 you yesterday which had enclosed with it agency reports of
5 a number of occasions as a result of the ruling which I
6 gave on Monday.
7
8 MS. STEEL: Yes.
9
10 MR. JUSTICE BELL: If either party wants those to go in the
11 bundles they will go in the bundles, but things do not need
12 to go into the bundles just because they have been
13 disclosed and I will not put mine in the bundles until one
14 party or other says: "We want them in the bundles." So
15 that is the first thing you have got to think about. If
16 they do go in the bundles I need to know where they should
17 go. I suggest each one goes after the notes I already have
18 on a particular date with A, B, C or whatever after the
19 last number in the bundle so far.
20
21 MR. RAMPTON: We have not had a chance to do that yet.
22
23 MR. JUSTICE BELL: No. It needs some thought to be devoted to
24 that.
25
26 MR. RAMPTON: We will put them in chronologically and we will
27 put them in after the existing notes for the particular
28 occasions.
29
30 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Right. The next thing then is if either Miss
31 Steel or Mr. Morris -- and I stress if because I am not
32 encouraging it -- but if you feel that you require either
33 Mr. Pocklington or Mr. Bishop -- I do not think it applies
34 to Mr. Russell -- to return for any further questions in
35 the light of the additional reports which have been
36 disclosed, we have got to think about when they should come
37 back, and the question arises is whether either one or both
38 of them can come back tomorrow, if we are likely to have
39 time after Miss Brophy has given her evidence. If we can
40 have a joint time estimate of how long Miss Brophy is
41 likely to last, that would help.
42
43 MS. STEEL: Can I just say one thing on that? I finally managed
44 to get hold of Miss Brophy last night. I was going to ask
45 if Mr. Claire is not available we could start an hour later
46 as she has to come down from Chester after getting her
47 children up, and we have never met her.
48
49 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Right. Well, the next thing applies also
50 -- and I am really just going through these matters so you
51 can give a bit of thought and then we might talk about them
52 again at two o'clock or something of that kind -- is if we
53 are going have time to spare tomorrow, whether there is any
54 of your reading we can usefully do.
55
56 MR. MORRIS: I have done a list. I have not written it out but
57 I have done a list of outstanding papers.
58
59 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Very well. If the answer is that we cannot
60 fit in more evidence to fill the day, I would encourage you
