§ 62. Mr. Evelyn Kingasked the President of the Board of Trade by what percentage the British share of the South African market has been reduced between 1963 and 1966; and what cash value this represents.
§ Mr. CroslandOur share of South African imports fell from 30 per cent. to 27½ per cent. Had it not fallen, imports from the U.K. in 1966 would have been £20 million higher, These figures do not reflect our share in the market as a whole, because our earnings from subsidiary companies are important and increasing.
