     1        point on -----
     2
     3   MS. STEEL:  No, that is page 3.  I was talking about page 4.
     4
     5   MR. JUSTICE BELL: Yes.
     6
     7   MS. STEEL:  I cannot work out what page 3 is, to be honest.
     8
     9   MR. JUSTICE BELL: At the moment, I am thinking -- query, what
    10        difference it will make at the end of the day, I am not
    11        passing any judgment upon that -- but it looks that after
    12        any raises which may appear on pages 1 and 2, there are
    13        raises which are shown on page 3, and then the rates which
    14        appear on page 4 are the ones which are the latest rates on
    15        pages 1 and 2, that is, before any further rise which
    16        appears on page 3.
    17
    18   MS. STEEL:   Right.  There are three names on page 4 that do not
    19        appear on the typed sheet.
    20
    21   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  There you are.  Mr. Mehigan is saying that he
    22        cannot remember why that was.
    23
    24   MR. MORRIS:  The names on this sheet, it says -- let us just
    25        have a look at these disclosed documents.  On the front
    26        page it says "hours worked per week", the first document
    27        1.  I presume that is a misprint; it should be "hours
    28        worked per fortnight", because even we will not claim they
    29        are working 90 hours a week or 119 hours a week.
    30        A.  Let me just review for one second.  Yes, it would
    31        appear that it is two weeks' hours.
    32
    33   Q.   Yes; and the dates are two weeks apart, so we will
    34        assume -----
    35
    36   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  They are not always two weeks apart.  But if
    37        one assumes that they were working not necessarily, as it
    38        were, every day, I suppose they might receive their pay
    39        just shortly before the fortnight or shortly afterwards?
    40        A.  That is correct, my Lord, yes.
    41
    42   Q.   We get sometimes more than two weeks between the dates and
    43        sometimes less?
    44        A.  Yes, depending on the -----
    45
    46   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  But it is basically around the two week
    47        period.
    48
    49   MR. MORRIS:  Yes.  Almost all of them are full-timers, are they
    50        not?  If you cast your eyes down, there are only about 
    51        three that you could say were obviously -- maybe four -- 
    52        that were obviously part-timers, just from halving the 
    53        hours that they have given?
    54        A.  Yes.  Cecily Brennan would appear to be part-time.
    55
    56   Q.   Yes; and the second page Gloria Heeley is obviously
    57        part-time, and Kathleen Doyle is obviously part-time, and
    58        (inaudible) obviously part-time.  So, apart from those
    59        four, the rest are all full-timers?
