HC Deb 02 July 1969 vol 786 c88W
50. Sir R. Russell

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what quantity of lager beer was consumed in this country in 1968; and how much of it was imported.

Mr. Hoy

No official figures are available, but trade estimates indicate that total consumption was between 1¼ and 1½ million barrels. About a quarter of this was imported.
