     2   THE WITNESS:  What page?
     3
     4   MR. RAMPTON:  You should put that in, please, behind page 2.
     5        That is page 5, but it is in the wrong place.  It is
     6        Tracy Terry's supposed bone.

     8   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  If I change the 5 to 2A, then -----
     9
    10   MR. RAMPTON:  That is what I am doing, my Lord, yes.
    11
    12        This piece of bone, I remind you, was supposed to have been
    13        an inch and a quarter long.  I cannot make it out in my
    14        copies.  I do not know if you can?
    15        A.  I read it, but I have forgotten your question.  I read
    16        page number 4.
    17
    18   Q.   Sorry.  We are on the wrong page.
    19        A.  Yes.  Sorry.
    20
    21   Q.   Can you just look at that one which has now become 2A (what
    22        was 5), and you see there are some photographs reproduced.
    23        It is headed "Compliance photographic report".  I was
    24        wondering whether you could see in either of those
    25        photographs the bone itself, or the alleged bone?
    26        A.  I see a dark spot.  I would assume that is the size of
    27        the bone.
    28
    29   MR. RAMPTON:   Let us go back then, if we may, to page 4.  There
    30        is not, after all, a second page to this document.
    31
    32   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  It says "continue on the reverse", does it
    33        not, in paragraph 7, so I assume that "2" was typed on the
    34        back of page 1.
    35
    36   MR. MORRIS:  We never got the reverse.
    37
    38   MR. RAMPTON:  No.  It is only "continue on the reverse", as
    39        needed.
    40
    41   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes.  I am just assuming that our page 2 was
    42        typed on the back of page 1 because it was needed; that is
    43        all.
    44
    45   MR. RAMPTON:  Yes, my Lord, certainly.  But there does not
    46        appear to be any further writing on this one.
    47
    48        Have you made enquiries about this alleged incident,
    49        Dr. Gomez Gonzalez?
    50        A.  Yes, I did. 
    51 
    52   Q.   What information can you give us about it? 
    53        A.  No follow-up -- there is a normal process, when every
    54        complaint is made, they follow up and look and provide all
    55        the information to, in this case it is the Food Safety
    56        Inspection Service; they go to the plant tour with
    57        inspector and they inspect every process, every meat, every
    58        product, and found no reason to believe that we had a
    59        problem.  In addition, that was the only complaint that
    60        they received at that time.  Like I mentioned before, they
