Day 268 - 24 Jun 96 - Page 36


     
     1        morning which gives you an opportunity to tell her as soon
     2        as you arrive at Court tomorrow morning, that you want Mr.
     3        Pocklington recalled, I in fact will not give leave for him
     4        to be recalled.  As I say, that sounds fiercer than it is
     5        because if you tell Mrs. Brindley-Codd, do it this
     6        afternoon if you possibly can, but first thing tomorrow
     7        when you arrive at Court at the latest.  Then Mr.
     8        Pocklington, I hope, can be brought on Wednesday
     9        afternoon.  What about Mr. Bishop?  What is his
    10        availability.
    11
    12   MR. ATKINSON:   Well, I am told he is out of the country at the
    13        moment until the weekend.
    14
    15   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Well, he can come back any morning at 10.30,
    16        whatever else we are doing, and Miss Steel can put her
    17        short further cross-examination to him.
    18
    19   MS. STEEL:  I just wanted to ask one point which was that Mr.
    20        Rampton said something the other day about opening the
    21        floodgates and I wanted to confirm that if we get them back
    22        to ask them about a specific point in the notes that it is
    23        not going reopen re-examination and only on that particular
    24        point.
    25
    26   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes.  Well, you can work on that basis.
    27
    28   MS. STEEL:  Right.  OK.  Thank you.
    29
    30   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  There is nothing hidden there, is there Mr.
    31        Atkinson?  I cannot remember.
    32
    33   MS. STEEL:  I am not sure whether the floodgates was with
    34        reference to what they were saying or what we were saying.
    35
    36   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I do not think it was opening the floodgates
    37        as far as re-examination is concerned.  I think Mr. Rampton
    38        was expressing concern that you want to go on to other
    39        things, but you have made it quite clear that that is the
    40        only matter that troubles you.
    41
    42   MS. STEEL:  Yes.
    43
    44   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Very well.  We will go on with Professor
    45        Crawford in the morning then.
