§ Mr. David StewartTo ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs how many UK lorry drivers have been acquitted in France of drug-related matters in each year since 1999. [122872]
§ Mr. MullinWe do not record statistics on the points raised by my hon. Friend. It would incur disproportionate cost to provide the information requested. However, our Consulates in France have manually checked records for the last year, and we are aware of one case of a British lorry driver being acquitted in France of drug related charges.
