HC Deb 08 March 1966 vol 725 c504W
Brigadier Clarke

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will take steps to make an estimate of the value of trade lost to Great Britain by the imposition of sanctions on Rhodesia to date.

Mr. Jay

A satisfactory estimate of British exports denied to Rhodesia cannot be made from two months' figures. The relevant information taken from Account IV of the Overseas Trade Accounts is as follows:

U.K. exports and re-exports to Rhodesiamillion f.o.b.)
January-November 1965 (Monthly average) 2.7
December 1965 1.8
January 1966 .5
