§ Mr. Kenneth Clarkeasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will publish a table showing in real terms the level of British capital investment overseas and in the EEC, the Commonwealth, the United States of America and elsewhere, respectively, in each of the last 10 years.
§ Mr. MeacherI have been asked to reply.
The information available relates to net private direct investment overseas excluding oil and is given below. No area breakdown is yet available for 1975 and 1976. These current values have not been expressed in terms of constant prices because there are no suitable price deflators.
