§ Mr. John Wellsasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what is the estimated cost to the Exchequer to date of sanctions against Rhodesia; and what is the estimated loss in earnings of all sorts to the United Kingdom arising from these sanctions, in so far as this loss can be ascertained.
§ Mr. DiamondCosts to the Exchequer amounted at mid-July to somewhat more than £9¼ million.
In the first six months of 1966 British exports to Rhodesia were just over £14 million less than in the same period of 1965. Figures of the total decline in invisible exports are not available.
