HL Deb 16 May 2000 vol 613 cc12-3WA
Lord Howell of Guildford

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What proportion of total exports of goods and services worldwide they estimate to be invoiced in dollars or dollar-related currencies either by virtue of destination or by type of product or service. [HL2388]

Lord McIntosh of Haringey

Information is not available on the proportion of total exports of goods and services that are invoiced in dollars or dollar-related currencies. Customs and Excise are engaged in a project which is examining the feasibility of the production of this information for trade in goods. However, no results are available yet.
