§ Mr. Nelson[holding answer 16 March 1993]The latest estimate of the proportion of the United Kingdom's gross domestic product that is generated by companies is for 1991, when it was 53.7 per cent. A split between publicly quoted and private companies is not available centrally and could be obtained only at disproportionate cost.
