17. Mr. Edwin Wainwright

asked the Minister for Trade how many tonnes of steel have been imported during each of the past three years; and what is the estimated amount for the current year.

Mr. Sproat

The figures in millions of metric tonnes are as follows:

Million metric tonnes
1979 3.8
1980 4.6
1981 3.6
1982* 3.0
* January-September.

I prefer not to offer an estimate for 1982 as a whole.
