Day 247 - 10 May 96 - Page 03

     
     1   MR. JUSTICE BELL: Yes.  Let us just see what that amounts to.
     2        (Handed).  Are they for all the meetings?
     3
     4   MR. RAMPTON:  Yes, I have done it for all the meetings which are
     5        in your Lordship's bundle that I know of.  There are no
     6        names that I know of that are now missing from any of them.
     7
     8   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  It may not be, it may not matter, or I may
     9        have understood it but, for instance, page 2 in the bundle
    10        has "31/1/94".  No, that is a message.  That is irrelevant.
    11
    12   MS. STEEL:   Well, it would be helpful to know who it was to and
    13        from.  It would be relevant.
    14
    15   MR. RAMPTON:  No, it would not be relevant.  I am sorry,
    16        I adhere to my original view that I have said that it is
    17        not relevant.  But I will have a look and see whether I
    18        have any problem with it.
    19
    20   MR. JUSTICE BELL: In the meantime, what I am going to do is put
         in my bundle behind each of the relevant pages what I have
    22        been handed up.
    23
    24   MR. RAMPTON:  I am sorry, my Lord.  If your Lordship would like
    25        us to, we will have it done properly in due course.
    26
    27   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  There is no need for that.  For instance, the
    28        one which has "28th February 1994", I am going to put in
    29        between pages 12 and 13.  The one dated 21st March, 1994, I
    30        am going to put in between pages 16 and 17.
    31
    32   MR. RAMPTON:  Yes.
    33
    34   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  The 11th April one I will put in behind 18
    35        for the moment.
    36
    37   MR. RAMPTON:  Can I go back to page 2, my Lord?  I agree with
    38        your Lordship that it ----
    39
    40   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  16?
    41
    42   MR. RAMPTON:  16?
    43
    44   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  No, 14, I think you said it was.
    45
    46   MR. RAMPTON:  14, yes.
    47
    48   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I will put the other sheet in behind 14.
    49
    50   MR. RAMPTON:  Yes. 
    51 
    52   MR. JUSTICE BELL: What about the memo? I have to say, I have a 
    53        great deal of -- maybe it is not very legal -- of
    54        difficulty with memos of meetings when I do not know who
    55        was there and memoranda when I do not know who sent them
    56        and who to.
    57
    58   MR. RAMPTON:  I understand that.  It is simply that I have, for
    59        reasons which your Lordship is aware of, flown by the book
    60        in relation to discovery, and I did it on this occasion
