1 MR. RAMPTON: My Lord, we do now have copies of the anaemic
school girls paper. Perhaps we can just hand those in
2 now? Where are we putting it? (Handed)
3 MR. JUSTICE BELL: It was orange 3a, tab 9. In fact, I already
have a divider in mine. We have some spare dividers, I
4 think.
5 Is there anyone who would be unable to resume at half
past 1? We will resume then.

(Short adjournment)

MS. STEEL: If we could go back to the chart, table 2?
8 A. Yes.
9 Q. Here you have decided to choose a person, a man with an
average daily intake of calories of 2,500 calories?
10 A. Yes.
11 Q. If you had chosen a woman, for example, between the ages
of 19 to 50, the calories limited would be 1,940, would it
12 not?
A. Well, we could easily check, but I would accept that
13 is about right.
14 Q. If you want to check?
A. I will take your word for it.
15
Q. It is from here, from the grey book?
16 A. It sounds right.
17 Q. So what effect on your calculations would it have if the
total daily calorie intake is reduced from 2,500 to 1,940?
18 A. Clearly it would raise the proportion of calorie
coming from the McDonald's diet by, well, you can do the
19 calculation yourself, but by 25 or 19.
20 Q. Right.
21 MR. JUSTICE BELL: That figure of 1940 is not so very different
from the figure in table 1, is it not?
22 A. That is right.
23 Q. When you have chosen the other meals for children during
the week, presumably you have chosen meals which would
24 have been appropriate for children, table 1?
A. Well, to be quite frank they were more or less chosen
25 at random anyway.
26 Q. When you took the children's meals to total, for instance,
13,841, were they for a child -----
27 A. Yes, that was based on proportion sizes for children.
28 Q. So they were the sort of meal which an adult in the family
might well have eaten as well, but small portions?
29 A. Yes.
30 MS. STEEL: So, in effect, what is going to happen is that it
is going to be harder for the woman to eat healthily
