Day 248 - 13 May 96 - Page 02

     
     1   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I read with interest the whole of the student
     2        information pack over the weekend.  Now, do you want
     3        Mr. Preston back?
     4
     5   MS. STEEL:   There are just a couple of things to deal with
     6        before then.  One is, we will probably ask Mr. Preston
     7        questions about this -- we got it over the weekend -- it is
     8        basically another copy of the press release which has been
     9        sent over the weekend.
    10
    11   MR. JUSTICE BELL: Let me have a look at that.  (Handed).
    12        Just pause a moment.
    13
    14   MS. STEEL:   Sorry.  The other thing is that we are serving
    15        today the statement of Francis Tiller who was employed as
    16        an inquiry agent to investigate London Greenpeace.  We will
    17        not be asking Mr. Preston about the statement but we
    18        probably will ask Mr. Nicholson.
    19
    20   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Do you want me to read that now or
         overnight?
    22
    23   MS. STEEL:   You could do, yes.  (Handed).
    24
    25   MR. JUSTICE BELL: It is probably a good idea that Mr. Rampton
    26        has an opportunity to look at it now.  (Pause).  Yes.
    27
    28   MS. STEEL:   OK.  Paul Preston.
    29
    30   MS. STEEL:   One thing I should ask about just while Mr. Preston
    31        is on his way up there.  We asked for the better copies of
    32        the things behind Mr. Preston's statement and we have not
    33        heard anything.  I do not know what is happening about
    34        that.
    35
    36   MR. RAMPTON:  My Lord, what things?
    37
    38   MS. STEEL:   No.  They are not the ones I was talking about
    39        -- the tables of all the restaurants behind the first
    40        restaurant.
    41
    42   MR. RAMPTON:  I do not know what is happening about that.
    43        I think we forgot to do something.  We will, my Lord,
    44        attend to that.
    45
    46                         Paul Preston, recalled
    47              Cross-examination by the Defendants continued
    48
    49   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Do you need those for this morning?
    50 
    51   MS. STEEL:   No, it was while I thought of it. 
    52 
    53   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  What I suggest you do, especially if we
    54        finish in reasonable time today, is, if there are better
    55        copies in court you make sure you go away with them.
    56
    57   MS. STEEL:   OK.  Just one thing to clear up, you have seen this
    58        Times Press Supplement that appeared on your 20th
    59        anniversary -- this is a reduced version, I think
    60        Mr. Rampton has an original.  Do you recognise that?
