                                            PAUL LEMAIRE, Cross-examined:
 
 
 
     1
     2   Q.   Have you been told to criticise John Nevison?
     3        A.  No, I have not.
     4
     5   Q.   That is the line, is it not, of all the McDonald's
     6        witnesses in this issue ---
     7        A.  Not to my knowledge.
     8
     9   Q.   -- "Go in there and criticise John Nevison"?
    10        A.  Not to my knowledge, it is not.
    11
    12   Q.   Your recollection is that you worked longer hours under
    13        John Nevison.  Can you go to the documents in the Heathrow
    14        file.  I am not sure what it is called.
    15
    16   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Before you pursue this, you had better find
    17        out whether the hours prevailed also under Mark Riley
    18        because, do not forget, John Nevison was only Manager for
    19        four months, and the period when he was Floor Manager --
    20        and, I have been told, working 40 to 50 hours -- would,
    21        therefore, mostly be under Mark Riley.
    22
    23   MR. MORRIS:  Right.
    24
    25   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I correct that.  About five months would be
    26        under Mark Riley, about four months under John Nevison; and
    27        then, thereafter, until he moved on, you worked under
    28        Dave Roberts?
    29        A.  That is correct.
    30
    31   MR. MORRIS:  The long hours that you worked under John Nevison,
    32        did that apply to Mark Riley as well, when you were
    33        Floor Manager?
    34        A.  Not really, because when I was under Mark Riley it was
    35        just for a couple of months.
    36
    37   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  What hours then?
    38        A.  40 to 50.
    39
    40   Q.   40 to 50 under Mark Riley?
    41        A.  Under Mark Riley.
    42
    43   MR. MORRIS:  Have you got those documents at the back?  There is
    44        a great long file of 90 odd or 100 documents.  I have not
    45        checked them under Mark Riley.
    46
    47        If you look at page 1, this is the period at the end of
    48        October 1993, beginning of November 1993.  You worked,
    49        I calculate, 114 hours in that fortnight.  Just take my
    50        word for it that the figures are correct. 
    51        A.  OK. 
    52 
    53   Q.   So that would be 57 hours a week.  If we go on to the next
    54        fortnight, you did not work; you got nought for the whole
    55        lot.  The one after, on page 7 -- that I have just looked
    56        at now, I had not checked before -- it is over 111 hours
    57        for a fortnight period; yes?
    58        A.  Yes.
    59
    60   Q.   I have not checked the rest.  That was under Mark Riley.
