Day 310 - 04 Dec 96 - Page 05

     
     1
     2   MR. RAMPTON:   Mr. Langert said he would try and solve the
     3        problem when he went back to America, but I do not think he
     4        ever did.
     5
     6   MR. MORRIS:   The relative percentages not adding up to a
     7        hundred percent is because it may only be 70 percent
     8        recycled content.
     9
    10   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I am sorry, I do not want any comment on the
    11        facts.  I am going to be quite rigid about that.
    12
    13   MR. MORRIS:   It is just obvious common sense to me.
    14
    15   MR. JUSTICE BELL:   Well, it may be, but I do not want arguing
    16        back on questions of fact.
    17
    18   MR. MORRIS:   It is not an argument.  No-one can understand why
    19        it does not add up to a hundred percent.  I am only
    20        suggesting that it is probably because it is not a hundred
         percent recycled; it is 80 percent recycled.
    22
    23   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  It may be, or it may be because the figures
    24        are completely wrong.  I just have to decide.
    25
    26   MR. MORRIS:   OK.
    27
    28   MR. JUSTICE BELL:   Yes.  I think the other ones related to
    29        matters which I raised when talking about the counterclaim
    30        yesterday.
    31
    32   MR. RAMPTON:   Yes.
    33
    34   MR. JUSTICE BELL:   Then I will go on to the employment volume.
    35
    36   MR. MORRIS:   If I can just say something helpful, my last
    37        comment.
    38
    39   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes.
    40
    MR. MORRIS:   It does say at the bottom of page 274 in that
    42        chart, "Projection for the Following Year", it says: "Based
    43        on napkins and carry-out bags reaching the hundred percent
    44        recycled content objective in 1991", implying that the
    45        reason it has got 71 percent total -- sorry, 50 percent
    46        carry-out bags total -- is because it has not yet reached
    47        the hundred percent mark.
    48
    49   MR. JUSTICE BELL:   Right.  That is helpful.  Thank you.  The
    50        pleaded meanings here are 4N, O and P. 
    51 
    52   MR. RAMPTON:   Yes. 
    53
    54   MR. JUSTICE BELL:   Does O actually add anything?
    55
    56   MR. RAMPTON:   No.  Here, Mr. Atkinson and I have had something
    57        of a disagreement.  I was the one who has to make the
    58        submissions, however.  Can I answer it in this way?  If
    59        your Lordship would look at the first and second pages of
    60        my general text on employment, I have underlined --
