     1        investigate what goes on there, you can do that.  If it is
     2        essential for you to state the name in court in order to
     3        put it to a witness, you can do that.
     4
     5        It is not, in fact, a great sacrifice, or any sacrifice, so
     6        far as the conduct of this issue is concerned.
     7
     8   MR. MORRIS:  We are not averse to that, you know, to get things
     9        moving, but I am not very keen on the principle that is
    10        being raised here.  Can we do it without prejudice to any
    11        future applications of this kind?
    12
    13   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes.  Do you want to say anything?
    14
    15   MS. STEEL:   No.
    16
    17   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I am not going to ask you for a formal
    18        undertaking.  As far as I am concerned, for the fair
    19        disposable of this action, you are entitled to that
    20        information.  I am not going to impose any conditions on
    21        you or ask for any undertaking.  Rightly or wrongly, I am
    22        going to rely upon you just to use it for the purposes of
    23        this action, and leave it at that.
    24
    25   MR. RAMPTON:  My Lord, I should only add this -- although of
    26        course, I accept that, and I am not going to argue that --
    27        if it should continue to turn out that the information
    28        supplied by us to the Defendants, for example, under a
    29        ruling of your Lordship, is misused in the way that the
    30        transcripts have been misused, then I am afraid to say that
    31        the Defendants will have to find their own resources to buy
    32        copies of the transcripts themselves, because we have been
    33        extremely patient.  I have mentioned it before.  The supply
    34        of what I might call distorted or misleading reports to the
    35        media -- specialist media, not the mainstream media -- has
    36        not stopped.  One of its principal arenas is a thing called
    37        "Internet".
    38
    39   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Mr. Rampton, I am going stop you there,
    40        because you will take such course in the future as appeals
    41        to you.
    42
    43   MR. RAMPTON:  I would not do it without telling your Lordship.
    44
    45   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  There are quite enough hurdles in this case
    46        without jumping ones which may or may not appear in the
    47        future.  I am going to leave it there.
    48
    49   MR. MORRIS:  The next item is the blanked out nutrition document
    50        that we have now a new document -- well, the alleged full 
    51        document is now disclosed.  Do you have a copy of the ones 
    52        that were disclosed today? 
    53
    54   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes.
    55
    56   MR. MORRIS:  The first one.  You may wish to compare it to the
    57        previous disclosed document.
    58
    59   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Can you give me the reference to that?
