2 Q. Do you know anything about the legal or Advertising
3 Standards sanctions against the use of ronald mcdonald in
4 Sweden?
5 A. No, I do not.
6
7 Q. You do not. Do you know anything about the -- we could
8 actually go to this document, I think. It is actually the
9 Siegfried Pater's book about McDonald's.
10
11 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Do you have a reference for that?
12
13 MR. MORRIS: Not really, no.
14
15 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Parts of it are ----
16
17 MR. MORRIS: It might be our supplementary list. We have not
18 our documents. It is the translation provided by
19 McDonald's actually. I do not know where it is.
20
21 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Your rainforest documents are in bundle 1
22 which is documents 1 to 25. Is it part of those?
23
24 MR. MORRIS: I do not think it is, no. I think it was in the
25 supplementary list and it was translated by McDonald's. It
26 was a book called "McDonald's" and then it had a German
27 title. Mr. Atkinson seems to have found it. I have a page
28 number on it which is obviously from the tab, from the
29 bundle. I think it was an 80-page book.
30
31 MR. RAMPTON: My Lord, I can tell your Lordship that in this
32 bundle which I am holding, which is the Defendants'
33 supplementary bundle 1 at tab 3, appears a photocopy of
34 Herr Pater's book about McDonald's. I am not blessed with
35 any translation, however. I do recall having roughly
36 translated some parts of it which were concerned themselves
37 with allegations -- I stress that word -- made about the
38 rainforests but I do not remember anything about
39 advertising.
40
41 MR. MORRIS: Yes. There was a book which was a general book
42 about 80 pages about McDonald's specifically, and the
43 Plaintiffs translated the whole book. I have just got an
44 extract of it here.
45
46 MR. JUSTICE BELL: If that is so, is it one of the Plaintiffs'
47 documents? Does it appear in any of their bundles?
48
49 MR. MORRIS: We do not in our trial bundles here have all of our
50 documents. I presume the rest of the court does have
51 them?
52
53 MR. JUSTICE BELL: How long is the part that you wish to put?
54
55 MR. MORRIS: There are two or three bits and pieces, paragraphs
56 really.
57
58 MR. JUSTICE BELL: The document which you have in your hand is
59 what? Is that something you think is in a bundle
60 somewhere?
