Day 156 - 17 Jul 95 - Page 18
1
2 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Yes.
3
4 MS. STEEL: There was also a couple of documents which I asked
5 Mrs. Brinley-Codd if we could have copies of last week,
6 which I have not heard anything back yet.
7
8 MR. JUSTICE BELL: What are they? We will not enter into a
9 discussion on it now, but if you could just say what they
10 are.
11
12 MS. STEEL: A copy of the raised chart concerning the percentage
13 of crew getting five pence, 10 pence and 15 pence
14 increases, and then UK Management and Crew
15 Scheduling Programme which is mentioned in the NDP3 which
16 is tab 15 -- I cannot remember what volume it is -- page
17 607. I think it is pink, it might be, XII or XIII. I am
18 not sure, but it is tab 15.
19
20 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Yes. Was there anything else, Ms. Steel or
21 Mr. Morris, which you had in mind to mention?
22
23 MS. STEEL: It is vaguely possible something about a
24 counterclaim but, to be honest, I have not really had time
25 to sort it out, so I do not think that I will be ready for
26 that.
27
28 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Right. It is up to you to bring that forward
29 at an appropriate time if you have something there.
30 Anything else?
31
32 MR. MORRIS: I do not think so; that is quite enough.
33
34 MR. JUSTICE BELL: No. Was there anything else you wanted to
35 deal with, Mr. Rampton?
36
37 MR. RAMPTON: No, my Lord. I am looking, if I can, to try to
38 work out what I am able to do by way of evidence for the
39 rest of the week.
40
41 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Yes. Should I ask how long those arguments
42 are likely to take?
43
44 MR. RAMPTON: Your Honour, that is the thing; one does not
45 really know. If, for example, the transcript argument ran
46 its full length, according to that list of authorities,
47 there would not be time for anything else at all tomorrow
48 and it might not even finish then.
49
50 MR. JUSTICE BELL: No, I do not think you should contemplate
51 anything further tomorrow. It is a question of whether we
52 are likely to go on to anything further on Thursday.
53
54 MR. RAMPTON: Quite.
55
56 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Unless you have a very clear view in your
57 mind of how long it is likely to take and, quite frankly,
58 it is difficult on interlocutory things, I think you ought
59 to have someone or some people peopled warned for Thursday,
60 preferably people for whom it will not be a particular
