6
7 THE WITNESS: Sorry.
8
9 MR. JUSTICE BELL: It does not say anything about a warning
10 there, does it?
11 A. Sorry, no. I must be mixing it up with Mr. Brian,
12 except that he was -- yes -- "He had been informed of the
13 policy re schedule changes." Sorry, he does actually say
14 there: "I told Connor about our policy at least three
15 times."
16
17 MS. STEEL: ".....at orientation in the handbook and at the first
18 crew meeting." It is not a warning, is it?
19 A. No.
20
21 MR. JUSTICE BELL: There we are. Do you want to ask any more
22 questions?
23
24 MS. STEEL: You did not investigate it, because you accepted
25 their word?
26 A. Yes.
27
28 Q. You trusted them to carry out actions on behalf of the
29 Company?
30 A. Yes. That was their responsibility.
31
32 Q. If they did a good job the Company would take the credit,
33 and if they did a bad job the Company would have to live
34 with the stick?
35 A. If they made a mistake, they would be reprimanded. But
36 people make mistakes.
37
38 MR. MORRIS: The fact is, you were glad that two union activists
39 were got rid of?
40 A. No, that is not -----
41
42 Q. You were satisfied with the situation?
43 A. No.
44
45 MS. STEEL: It did not concern you?
46 A. Well, it concerns me if we make a mistake; we should
47 always try and correct it.
48
49 Q. But you did not do anything to correct this?
50 A. To correct the fact that they were dismissed?
51
52 Q. Yes.
53 A. No. I depended on my people, if they were doing it
54 correctly.
55
56 MS. STEEL: OK.
57
58 MR. MORRIS: No further questions.
