HC Deb 24 May 1971 vol 818 c38W
83. Mr. Moate

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what was the value of dairy products imported from New Zealand in 1970; and what is his estimate of the comparable costs of equivalent quantities imported from the European Economic Community.

Mr. Anthony Stodart

The value of dairy products imported from New Zealand in 1970 was £66.2 million. If equivalent quantities of these products had been imported from the European Economic Community at the average import prices of Community products in 1970 their cost would have been of the order of £70.5 million.
