     1        1987.

     3        This also applies to the Plaintiffs' acceptance that I was
     4        not liable for any publication in the last quarter of 1987.
     5
     6   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  That is what you want to say on the law in
     7        relation to publication?
     8
     9   MS. STEEL:   Yes, there might be a few additional points.
    10
    11   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Where are you going to go next?
    12
    13   MS. STEEL:   I have got some notes on malice, but in some ways,
    14        if it is possible, I would prefer to ---
    15
    16   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Just tell me what ---
    17
    18   MS. STEEL:  -- make a start tomorrow.
    19
    20   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  -- you want to do.  What other topics do you
    21        want to speak about, so far as the law is concerned?
    22
    23   MS. STEEL:  I think we have done all the major ones but, I mean,
    24        obviously, there are, like, quite a few minor -- obviously,
    25        I do not mean by minor that they are not important, but
    26        less extensive.
    27
    28   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Then after that you want to address me, do
    29        you, further on the counterclaim, or not?
    30
    31   MS. STEEL:   Yes.
    32
    33   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  You want to do that?
    34
    35   MS. STEEL:   Yes.
    36
    37   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Do you want to say something about damages,
    38        or not?
    39
    40   MR. MORRIS:  Yes, we do.  We have to sort ourselves out after
    41        today.
    42
    43   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes.  Are you hoping to put some more
    44        submissions in on matters of fact in writing by next
    45        Wednesday, or not?
    46
    47   MS. STEEL:   There are certainly some that I want to do, and
    48        hopefully I will be able to do it over the weekend, or at
    49        least get some of them done.
    50
    51   MR. MORRIS:  We are, basically, expecting to finish these
    52        submissions this week and then have the option of putting
    53        something in writing up until next Wednesday.
    54
    55   MS. STEEL:   In terms of the extra facts.
    56
    57   MR. MORRIS:  Yes, references.
    58
    59   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes.  Unless you have some other suggestion,
    60        I will adjourn until 10.30 tomorrow morning.
