1 be able to say, "Well, elsewhere in the book I made this
2 point." So I think it is unlikely that he can be taken
3 advantage of in any way.
4
5 It may not be purely as to credit, because it may be a
6 springboard to asking about matters of expert opinion or
7 fact as well, but we will have to wait and see.
8
9 MR. MORRIS: Yes. For the record I think ----
10
11 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Do you not have a copy of the book?
12
13 MR. MORRIS: No. I just have the extracts Mr. Rampton has given
14 us. I think, considering the amount of volume of
15 documents in this case and the lack of volume in my house,
16 it is helpful not to have necessarily copies of every full
17 document in the case. We will trust the Plaintiffs to
18 make sure that any relevant sections are given.
19
20 MR. RAMPTON: I hope, my Lord, that the whole of the section on
21 cancer and its references have been copied, because they
22 do go to the issue and are not simply on credit. I shall
23 be asking questions about those tomorrow.
24
25 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Yes. I would be surprise, Dr. Barnard, if
26 Mr. Rampton asked you about one page and you thought there
27 was something else in the book which ought to be referred

29 able to remember that there was something elsewhere in the
30 book, would you not?
31
32 THE WITNESS: Yes.
33
34 MR. MORRIS: Is it possible for him to keep that file he has
35 got and he can check in case there are other
36 sections -----
37
38 MR. JUSTICE BELL: There is absolutely no reason why
39 Dr. Barnard should not take that file away with him.
40
41 MR. RAMPTON: Not at all. I quite agree.
42
43 THE WITNESS: Thank you my Lord.
44
45 MR. RAMPTON: We wondered whether we might borrow your
46 Lordship's to make another copy tonight?
47
48 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Yes, certainly. What I am doing, as I have
49 done with all other documents, is I am just putting
50 underlining or putting marginal lines in the parts which
51 have been put to a witness.
52
53 MR. MORRIS: One final point, Peter Cox was going to be on
54 tomorrow but he is present in court so he is aware that he
55 is going to be delayed.
56
57 MR. JUSTICE BELL: He knows as much about the schedule as we do
58 now.
59
60 You talk to Mr. Cox about the schedule in case it
