HC Deb 08 March 1984 vol 55 c667W
25. Sir Anthony Meyer

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will give the total of United Kingdom net contributions to the European Economic Community since British accession expressed as a percentage of United Kingdom exports to the European Economic Community during the same period.

Mr. Ian Stewart

For the period 1 January 1973 to 31 December 1982, our net payments to the EC represented just over 3 per cent. of our exports to the EC for the same period.
