                                             KEVIN HARRISON, Re-examined:
 
 
 
     1
     2   MR. MORRIS:  There is no intention to call Mr. Gardner.  That
     3        should be a Civil Evidence Act notice.
     4
     5   MR. RAMPTON:  I shall object to that.
     6
     7   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  That can be dealt with when Mr. Morris comes
     8        to read it.
     9
    10   MR. RAMPTON:  My Lord, beyond that, I do not think I have any
    11        comment, except to say that the fewer witnesses that are
    12        called to little or no purpose, the better, because the
    13        sooner we shall get to the end of the case, which is
    14        something which on this side of the court we are quite
    15        enthusiastic about.
    16
    17   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  What I suggest you do is, if not before, if
    18        you can use part of the time in the run-up to Mr. Cesca to
    19        reduce what you would argue in relation to any of those
    20        witnesses to writing, so that it can be served on the
    21        Defendants in writing and a copy can be sent to me,
    22        particularly, as I reread those statements, then I would be
    23        grateful.  We can set aside some time to have an argument
    24        in relation to it if need be.
    25
    26   MR. RAMPTON:  Yes.  My Lord, I will do it sooner rather than
    27        later, because at the moment the Defendants' rainforest
    28        witnesses are scheduled to start on or about 7th March,
    29        which is fast approaching.  So I will do that, probably, at
    30        the end of next week.
    31
    32   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes, very well.  We will adjourn now and
    33        start again with Mrs. Hovi at 10.30 on Friday morning.
    34
