HC Deb 29 July 1983 vol 46 c717W
Mr. Arnold

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will publish in the Official Report comparative figures for the size of the small business sector in each of the Organisation for Economic (Co-operation and Development countries.

Mr. Lawson

The then Department of Industry published the latest comparable international statistics available on the size of small business sectors in the 19-25 November 1982 issue ofBritish Business. This is available in the Library and I would refer my hon. Friend to pages 486 to 491 of the issue.
