§ Mr. Teddy Taylorasked the Secretary of State for Trade what was the value of shipbuilding exports in the most recent annual period for which figures are available; and if he will give comparable figures for each of the previous 10 years.
§ Mr. DeakinsFigures for ships and boats up to 1971 appear in Volume 1 of the appropriate Annual Statement of Overseas Trade; and for 1972 and 1973 in the respective December issues of the monthly Overseas Trade Statistics. Prior to 1970 re-export figures were recorded separately and should be added to exports for comparability with later years.
