HC Deb 16 May 1985 vol 79 c174W
Mr. D. E. Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for Wales how much UHT milk is currently consumed in Wales; and how much of this consumption consists of milk produced in (a) Britain, (b) the European Economic Community and (c) the rest of the world.

Mr. Nicholas Edwards

Fifty nine million litres of UHT milk were sold in England and Wales in the year ended 31 March 1984: separate England and Wales figures are not readily available. In 1984 approximately 99 per cent. of total UHT milk sold in Great Britain was produced in Great Britain, with the balance being accounted for by imports from the European Economic Community.
