HC Deb 18 July 1983 vol 46 cc17-8W
Mr. Gould

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry whether he will publish in the Official Report a table showing imports from and exports to other European Community countries of internal combustion engines—other than diesel engines—for passenger motor cars in 1970, 1982 and the current year to date distinguishing engines for assembly from other engines.

Mr. Channon

This information is not available. The statistics of overseas trade do not distinguish spark-ignition internal combustion piston engines for passenger motor cars from those for road vehicles in general (including air cushion vehicles), tractors, works trucks and armoured fighting vehicles.

Notes:
* trucks over 3.0 tons and motive units.
† trucks over 3.5 tonnes and motive units.
