HC Deb 17 January 1994 vol 235 cc431-7W
Mr. Wigley

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what has been the value of imports(a) into the United Kingdom and (b) into the EU of agricultural products analysed by suitable category of product from (i) Russia, (ii) Hungary and (iii) Czechoslovakia in each of the three most recent years for which figures are available.

Mr. Jack

The value of imports into the United Kingdom is shown in table 1 in thousands of pounds while those for imports into the member states of the European Community are shown in table 2 in thousands of ecus.

Data for the whole of 1993 are not yet available. Prior to 1993 no separate data were collected for Russia.
