Dr. David Kerr

asked the President of the Board of Trade what were the amounts of United States funds invested in British film production on 1st January, 1960, 1st January, 1963, and 1st January, 1966.

Mr. Jay

I regret that this information is not available. However, sums receivable by the film industry from North America, mainly for film production, from 1961 to 1964, excluding the earnings of British films, amounted to £9.0 million, £9.7 million, £8.4 million and £9.4 million respectively. Complete figures for 1965 are not yet available.
