     1
     2   MS. STEEL:   I was going to come back to something that you said
     3        in the transcript of day 229, where you mentioned that
     4        there was no evidence of any other Anglo plant, except the
     5        one at Barretos, and just to point out that Mr. Cesca's map
     6        did mark two Anglo plants within the Amazonian frontier
     7        region.  I have actually got a note of where they are
     8        somewhere, but I think I actually photocopied that section
     9        of the map, so I can bring that in.
    10
    11   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  You had better tell me which ones they are.
    12        Have you got a copy of it?
    13
    14   MS. STEEL:  I am not sure whether I have got it with me.  It
    15        will be on the transcript, because I remember asking
    16        Mr. Cesca about it.
    17
    18   MR. RAMPTON:  My Lord, I have never seen it, apart from very
    19        briefly.  I never got shown it in court, because there was
    20        one of those private conversations going on.  But I think
    21        Mr. Cesca's original map is up there somewhere still;
    22        I think he left it here.  Mrs. Brinley-Codd knows where it
    23        is.
    24
    25   MS. STEEL:   That would be helpful.
    26
    27   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  If you would not mind.
    28
    29   MS. STEEL:   I can show you where they are.
    30
    31   MR. RAMPTON:  I am afraid my eyes will not cope.  I see
    32        one -----
    33
    34   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Let us see if Mr. Morris or Ms. Steel can
    35        help.
    36
    37   MR. RAMPTON:  I see at one at a place called -- where he has,
    38        somebody has written, "Anglo Beef", but I cannot see the
    39        other one.
    40
    41   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Pursue that point.  But what I am most
    42        concerned about at the moment is, what evidence is there
    43        that Anglo Refrigerifico SA, which is the Vestey company in
    44        Brazil, ever supplied beef to Braslo for Braslo to process
    45        into McDonald's burgers?
    46
    47   MS. STEEL:  Can I just answer this question while I have my hand
    48        on the map?  It is the one at Santano do Araguari, and the
    49        one at Gurupi.  I have not got the blue map with me.  I do
    50        not know if you can see where they are? 
    51 
    52   MR. MORRIS:  Gurupi was the one that was just north of 
    53        Goias State.
    54
    55   MS. STEEL:   And Santana do Araguari is Para, I think.
    56
    57   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes.  I would like to take that away with me
    58        at the end of the day.
    59
    60   MR. RAMPTON:  I am just going to put some sellotape on it.
