§ Mrs. Ann Wintertonasked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry (1) what has been the value of textile production by EEC member countries in total and in each individual member country in each of the last five years for which figures are available;
567W(2) what has been the value of clothing production by European Economic Community member countries in total and in each individual member country in each of the last five years for which figures are available;
(3) what has been the value of footwear production by European Economic Community member countries in total and in each individual member country in each of the last five years for which figures are available.
§ Mr. Fletcher[pursuant to the reply, 4 July 1984, c. 184]: The information available on a comparable basis relates to total industry sales rather than product sales. They are published by Eurostat in the "Structure and Activity of Industry", of which the latest relates to 1979 and 1980. A copy is in the Library. The figures for textiles are on page 172, for clothing on page 177, and for footwear on page 176.
