HC Deb 10 February 1976 vol 905 c135W
Mr. Sillars

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment (1) what has been the Scottish share of EEC quotas for goods vehicles in each year the United Kingdom has been a member of the Community;

(2) what is the United Kingdom share EEC quotas for good vehicles in 1976; and if he will break down the United Kingdom share by planning regions.

Dr. Gilbert

The United Kingdom share is 272. It would be impracticable to estimate the proportions of that total that could be assigned to any particular part of the United Kingdom as permits are allocated to individual road hauliers who may use them from bases anywhere in the country.
