     2   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  You have to have your electrical plug
     3        changing badge?
     4        A.  Yes, it is basically on basic electrics.  Managers go
     5        on a course or the maintenance people go on a course, so if
     6        you choose a maintenance person they are qualified to deal
     7        with basic electrical maintenance.
     8
     9   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I can see you want to make sure the person
    10        knows what they are doing for their own safety and fire
    11        risk and things like that?
    12        A.  Yes, sir.
    13
    14   Q.   But people will be taken to be trained and qualified to do
    15        the simple maintenance jobs, certain people on the staff,
    16        that is what you are saying?
    17        A.  Yes, certain people will not be qualified to deal with
    18        electrics, even changing bulbs.

    20   MR. MORRIS:  When did you say you started using a bin rather
    21        than just a bin liner, the cart, when did you start doing
    22        that on your trash walks?
    23        A.  It was summer last year, summer 1994.
    24
    25   Q.   There is a logo on the bin, a McDonald's logo, yes?
    26        A.  Yes.
    27
    28   Q.   When you walked around the area checking up on the environment/index.html">litter
    29        problem, what percentage or roughly what kind of percentage
    30        do you think McDonald's environment/index.html">litter featured when you checked,
    31        approximately?
    32        A.  I would not like to hazard a guess at the percentage of
    33        McDonald's and the percentage of other types of rubbish.
    34
    35   Q.   You did not do a report of those check-ups that you made
    36        then?
    37        A.  A written report, no.
    38
    39   Q.   No, but do not forget there have been two years of
    40        continuous local residents associations' complaints about
    41        McDonald's environment/index.html">litter.
    42
    43   MR. RAMPTON:  My Lord, Mr. Morris would have to substantiate
    44        that observation before he can put it as a question.  I do
    45        not believe he can.
    46
    47   MR. MORRIS:  Residents associations have complained to you about
    48        McDonald's environment/index.html">litter, is that a fact, yes, over the last
    49        couple of years?
    50        A.  I would not say over the last couple of years, no. 
    51        There was a period when these letters were sent to head 
    52        office as well that the residents complained that they were 
    53        not happy with the situation, but it has not been
    54        continuous over the last two years, no.
    55
    56   Q.   So are you saying that the residents associations are now
    57        happy with the situation?  Is that what you are saying?
    58        A.  I am not saying they are happy.  I am saying we have
    59        not received any formal letters or any complaints from the
    60        residents on a continuous basis, no.
