     1   Q.   They do.
     2        A.  Yes.
     3
     4   Q.   They do both side of the Kings Road?
     5        A.  Yes.
     6
     7   Q.   But they do not actually walk down any of the streets
     8        opposite?
     9        A.  No.
    10
    11   Q.   They do not, all right.  Walking the other side of the
    12        Kings Road would only be once a day, in the morning?
    13        A.  No, because on the half hourly trash walks they have to
    14        walk along that section of the Kings Road between Royal
    15        Avenue, Wellington Square and between the adjoining
    16        streets.
    17
    18   Q.   But the far side of Kings Road, the side opposite to the
    19        side that McDonald's are on?
    20        A.  Yes, that would be checked as well.
    21
    22   Q.   They do the other side of the road every half hour as well?
    23        A.  Yes, they would check across the road and also the BFI,
    24        the Council road sweepers, go along the Kings Road.
    25
    26   Q.   Leave them aside for the moment.  Do McDonald's environment/index.html">litter
    27        patrols actually walk along the far side of the street and
    28        pick up all the environment/index.html">litter on that side of street every half
    29        hour?
    30        A.  Yes, on that section of the road.
    31
    32   Q.   They do both sides of the street?
    33        A.  They should do, yes.
    34
    35   Q.   They should do?
    36        A.  On the Kings Road, on the pavements on both sides of
    37        the Kings Road.
    38
    39   Q.   Exactly what system of supervision is in operation for
    40        these trash walks, as you call them?
         A.  In the store there is a manager in charge at the time.
    42        He is called the shift manager.  He has to complete what we
    43        call a travel path which would include internal areas of
    44        the store and external areas of the store.  He has a check
    45        list in which he has to check not only the trash but also
    46        the dining areas, the kitchen areas, the counter area and
    47        the back up areas which include the stock room etc. and
    48        toilets.
    49        So, he is responsible and accountable for the outside of
    50        the store while he is on duty. 
    51 
    52   Q.   So he has to check the whole of the inside of the store and 
    53        that is every half hour, is it not?
    54        A.  Yes.
    55
    56   Q.   It is also up to him or her to check that the job has been
    57        done properly outside the store as well?
    58        A.  That is correct.
    59
    60   Q.   So how frequently would the shift manager go out to check
