     2   Q.   You do not.
     3
     4   MR. RAMPTON:  My Lord, I thought Mr. Morris was putting specific
     5        incidents which he alleged happened at McDonald's or their
     6        licensees.
     7
     8   MR. MORRIS:  Yes, I am going to do that.
     9
    10   MR. RAMPTON:  What does it matter what that Chicago Board said?
    11
    12   THE WITNESS:  There is no official -- can I say something?
    13
    14   MR. MORRIS:  I understand.
    15
    16   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Look, what you must do in the light of my
    17        revised ruling, I would like you to put the specific
    18        matters.  Then if there are other matters you want to go on
    19        to, do that.  If any objection is taken, I will consider
    20        it.  But, having had all the argument about the specific
         supposed Child Labour Law violations, put that now so that
    22        we have that dealt with.
    23
    24   MR. MORRIS:  OK.
    25
    26   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Depending on what Mr. Stein's answers are,
    27        you may or may not have to ask a more general question.
    28
    29   MR. MORRIS:  Is it a fact, do you know -- I did ask you,
    30        I think, before about a report -----
    31
    32   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  No.  Please put the specific matters now,
    33        Mr. Morris, and then come back to any reports.
    34        (To the witness):  Mr. Stein, Mr. Morris is going to puts
    35        to you various alleged instances.  I want him to put the
    36        date or approximate date.  I want him to put the place, by
    37        city or state.  I want him to put whether it is franchisee
    38        or McOpco and then, in a word or two, how many violations,
    39        something like that.  When he has put that altogether in
    40        one piece in relation to matter one, I want you to tell me
         whether it rings any bells with you?
    42        A.  Very well, my Lord.
    43
    44   MR. MORRIS:  Do you know Billings -- do you know what state
    45        Billings is?
    46        A.  Montana.
    47
    48   Q.   It has "MC".
    49
    50   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Have you got a date? 
    51 
    52   MR. MORRIS:  Around April 1995.  "A company that owned five 
    53        McDonald's restaurants in the Billings area paid $7,000
    54        fine to the US Department of Labour for child labour
    55        violations involving 28 minors, Kiercon Limited, owned by
    56        Casey Randalls of Billings.  The violations occurring
    57        between December 1992 and December 1994".
    58        A.  I have no knowledge of that.
    59
    60   Q.   Would it jog your memory if I said that the regulations
