Day 186 - 10 Nov 95 - Page 06

     
     1        saying that McDonald's are trying to make out that their
     2        food is healthy, i.e. a useful and nutritious part of any
     3        diet, when the evidence points to the opposite", and then
     4        you went on and said, "and that is the evidence of a link."
     5          But, I mean, I can forget the words, "and that is the
     6        evidence of a link".
     7
     8   MS. STEEL:   Where are we, sorry?
     9
    10   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  For the purpose of your definition of
    11        meaning, can I not?  It is clear that the leaflet -----
    12
    13   MS. STEEL:   I am lost as to where -- where did you say it was
    14        in the transcript?
    15
    16   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  It was day 53, page 5.
    17
    18   MS. STEEL:   Do you know what line it was?
    19
    20   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  No, but it is only one page.
    21
    22   MS. STEEL:   Right.
    23
    24   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Towards the bottom of page 5, line 50.
    25
    26   MS. STEEL:   Right.  That was not actually the part I was
    27        referring to.  I was referring to -- at some point
    28        I actually read out -- yes, it was on page 3.
    29
    30   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes, I have that.  But I have all that, as
    31        well.  But I thought -- I am not neglecting what you put at
    32        page 3 from line 12, but it seemed to me -- correct me if I
    33        am wrong, because this is the whole point of us having a
    34        full argument on it -- it seemed to me that what you said
    35        at page 5, line 50, as far as the semi-colon, really very
    36        succinctly said what you thought the thrust of the leaflet
    37        was.
    38
    39   MS. STEEL:   Right.  To be honest, reading it now -----
    40
    MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Anyway, do you want to repeat without reading
    42        that which is at page 3, lines ---
    43
    44   MS. STEEL:  I actually wrote out ---
    45
    46   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  -- 12 to 27?
    47
    48   MS. STEEL:  -- a shorter meaning, because I thought you felt
    49        that was -----
    50 
    51   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  We are starting afresh on the argument, so 
    52        why do you not give me that? 
    53
    54   MS. STEEL:   OK.
    55
    56   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Nothing said in the past is going to be held
    57        against you.  I want to find what the meaning is.
    58
    59   MS. STEEL:   Right.  McDonald's portray their food as a useful
    60        and nutritious part of any diet.
